verse 1
And did you walk
Down city streets
And did your heart
Not miss a beat
When they laughed
At your words
Couldn't you see
They were all absurd

They didn't know
Didn't understand
They couldn't see
The beauty there
They couldn't start
To treat you fair
Bridge 1
verse 3
And so you died
So very few grieved
They didn't know
What you achieved
How your heart
So proud and strong
Couldn't stay
For quite as long
Bridge 2
verse 4
So now we hear
From beyond the grave
This you gave
When no-one cared
A true great man
Will remember
That we can
