Lyrics Only Desire What You Have - Kate Rusby

Only Desire What You Have

I was not born a queen or king
I have no house nor anything
In comfort, none can equal me
And what they all would die to be
Walk in the sun, stay in the light
And when we’re done, we’ll take flight
Only desire what you have
Only desire what you have
My altar is the breath of life
For wisdom, grace and love I strive
While evil games the greedy play
It’s only nature I obey
Walk in the sun, stay in the light
And when we’re done, we’ll take flight
Only desire what you have
Only desire what you have
I’ll have no check upon my glass
But the hours of joy and laughter pass
Let night into the morning fold
And a whole new day of life take hold
Walk in the sun, stay in the light
And when we’re done, we’ll take flight
Only desire what you have
Only desire what you have
I’ll journey on, I’ll sing and dance
And the greedy ones can make their stance
With pockets for souls they’ll never fill
With happy heart, I’m smiling still
Walk in the sun, stay in the light
And when we’re done, we’ll take flight
Only desire what you have
Only desire what you have
