it takes a lot to know a man

• irlandalı popüler müzisyen damien rice'ın yeni başyapıtı. müthiş bir piyano balladı olmuş. sondaki keman solo ise tek kelimeyle muhteşem. sözleri şöyle;
  
  it takes a lot to know a man
  it takes a lot to understand
  the warrior, the sage
  the little boy enraged
  
  it takes a lot to know a woman
  a lot to understand what's humming
  the honeybee, the sting
  the little girl with wings
  
  it takes a lot to give, to ask for help
  to be yourself, to know and love what you live with
  it takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
  the slow reveal of what another body needs
  
  it takes a lot to know a man
  a lot to know, to understand
  the father and the son
  the hunter and the gun
  
  it takes a lot know a woman
  a lot to comprehend what's coming
  the mother and the child
  the muse and the beguiled
  
  it takes a lot to give, to ask for help
  to be yourself, to know and love what you live with
  it takes a lot to breathe, to touch, to feel
  the slow reveal of what another body needs
  
  it takes a lot to give, to ask for help

  what are you so afraid to lose?
  what is it you're thinking that will happen if you do?
  what are you so afraid to lose?
  (you wrote me to tell me you're nervous and you're sorry)
  what is it you're thinking that will happen if you do?
  (crying like a baby saying "this thing is killing me")
