If I was a man who knew what it meant to live
I would stand beside you and hold you in my mind
I would tell you all the things I've learned and teach you what I could
But it doesn't matter anyway--I told you I don't know

If I was a man who knew what it meant to love
I would stand beside you and hold you in my arms
I would tell you all the things I feel and teach you of my love
But it doesn't matter anyway--I told you I don't feel

If I was a man who knew what it meant to die
I would stand beside you--teardrops in my eyes
I would tell you all the pain I feel and watch you say goodbye
But it doesn't matter anyway--I told you I don't know

Really need to hear the music and it's sung more broken up but with repetition (what it meant to live...if I knew what it meant to live)

anyway...cheers
If there was a chair in which I could comprehend, I would stand always and embrace the path

    then, my man, you need to get a hat stand (unbearable lightness of being....magritte)
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
