Just Once

I beg and I beg
For no more tears
I beg and I beg
Hoping happiness nears

I beg and I beg
For no more fear
I beg and I beg
For my confidence to appear

I beg and I beg
For a life of all cheers
But I have no control of my ship
Someone up above steers

I beg and I beg
For things not to get worse
I beg and I beg
For someone to lift my curse

I beg and I beg
For just one perfect day
I beg and I beg
But life doesn't go that way

I beg and I beg
To have love
I beg and I beg
To the stars up above

I beg and I beg
But nobody hears me
I beg and I beg
A bright future I foresee

I beg I beg
But that doesn't work
So I give and I give
Hoping for a perk

I give and I give
Everything away
Until I have nothing left for myself
My spirit beginning to decay

I give and I give
But get nothing in return
I give and I give
So that other people have a turn

I wonder and I wonder
When it'll be my chance
I wonder and I wonder
When someone will give me a glance

I wonder and I wonder
When things will go my way
But then I realize and I realize
Other people have it worse anyway
