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
Ah, 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
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
Ah, 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
