I didn't know when I was lucky Discontented feeling bad Filled with envy For possessions other people hadI found my pride had always hurt me Fought the world to gain control Not realizing I was sitting on a beach of goldOh Lord, I'm a poor man With all the riches I can hold I'm a beggar And I'm sitting on a beach of goldThe problems I encountered Gave me strength, helped me sustain To know the pleasure First I had to cure the painWhen I was searching for solutions I found the answer lay in me I'm a drifter But I'm drifting on a silver seaOh Lord, I'm a poor man With all the riches I can hold I'm a beggar And I'm sitting on a beach of goldI didn't have courage My life was as dark as night When alone in the darkness I saw the brightest light Let the light shine downAre you out there now on empty Feel you've nothing left to give Sick of trying Have you lost the will to live?Don't be drowning in the shallows With the beach so near at hand Hear the voice say, "Stand up, get up And join me on the gilded sand"Come and join me on the beach With all the riches I can hold 'Cause I'm a beggar And I'm sitting on a beach of goldOh Lord, I'm a poor man With all the riches I can hold I'm a beggar I'm sitting on a beach of goldMy children my salvation The father to this man They're my teachers Playing on the golden sandWith my family all around me I've all the riches I can hold I'm a beggar Sitting on a beach of goldOh Lord, I'm a poor man With all the riches I can hold

Правда, перед этим он тоже времени зря не терял и успел выпустить пару сольников, "Smallcreeps Day" и "Acting Very Strange". Альбомы напоминали творчество "Genesis" и Майк подумал, что неплохо было бы что-нибудь поменять.... продолжение
