DON MCLEAN lyrics : "You Have Lived"

You have lived such a gentle life upon this earth
That I am stunned by your sight
If I could give but a token of the love you have

Then I might not be this lonely tonight

Let them have their smug and their cool

Confined by fashion and peer
I love you for your courage
In this frightened atmosphere

I love you for your courage
In this frightened atmosphere


Oh there are so few brave ones like you
Need I explain
Never wondering what to do

what to venture what to gain

And you have loved in a total way from flesh to soul

You speak without coy without pose
Your eyes can see that the emperor has lost his clothes
And what's more you'll tell the whole world what he stole


Let them have their fad and their fix
Confined by fashion and peer

I love you for your courage
In this frightened atmosphere
I love you for your courage

In this frightened atmosphere
