A Beggar Lyrics

Here am I a beggar
I never thought it would turn out like this
I'd be begging for your kiss
But I must have your love

Here am I a beggar
I've reached the point of no return
I've gone too far where you're concerned
And I need your love

Here am I a beggar
Without your love I'm poor
But wealthy I would be
If you would eat my humble plea
And give your heart to me
Cause I must have your love

Here am I a beggar

Here am I a beggar
Without your love I'm poor
But wealthy I would be
If you would eat my humble plea
And give your heart to me
Cause I must have your love

Here am I a beggar

A beggar, beggar, beggar

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
