How Little

Oh I have so little
Of things, of fame, of power
And now, of love and compassion

It does not matter
When I look around
I see things in clutter
Little, but I keep losing count

I had so much, only to lose
I was trying to hard to gain
So hard that I was always on the move
Leaving behind pain

Pain for my baby, my treasure
So much pain for my baby

It seems to matter so little
No one with, to celebrate
Of success and failure
I can only suffocate

In my own loneliness
Constructed unhappiness

Oh please Lord give me another reason
Another chance, another jewel
To desire and to treasure
Forever, and brand new everyday

Give me money or power
But it is so little
Without you, now lost and moved on
Without you, how little
