(George Michael And David Austin)
|
She takes the back road and the lane
|
Past the school that has not changed
|
In all this time
|
She thinks of when the boy was young
|
All the battles she had won
|
Just to give him life
|
|
That man
|
She loved that man
|
For all his life
|
But now we meet to take him flowers
|
And only god knows why
|
|
For what's the use in pressing palms
|
When children fade in mother's arms
|
It's a cruel world
|
We've so much to lose
|
And what we have to learn, we rarely choose
|
|
So if it's god who took her son
|
He cannot be the one living in her mind
|
|
Take care my love, she said
|
Don't think that god is dead
|
Take care my love, she said
|
|
You have been loved
|
|
If i was weak, forgive me
|
But i was terrified
|
You brushed my eyes with angels wings, full of love
|
The kind that makes devils cry
|
|
So these days
|
My life has changed
|
And i'll be fine
|
But she just sits and counts the hours
|
Searching for her crime
|
|
So what's the use of pressing palms
|
If you won't keep such love from harm
|
It's a cruel world
|
You've so much to prove
|
|
And heaven help the ones who wait for you
|
|
Well i've no daughters, i've no sons
|
Guess i'm the only one
|
Living in my life
|
|
Take care my love, he said
|
Don't think that god is dead
|
Take care my love, he said
|
|
You have been loved
|

You Have Been Loved
