Brave

I remember you on Park Avenue When your mother brought you through to the living room I was only five and you were an only child And that's when I decided I would gladly die for you 'Cause you're my world Kills me to think all that you have endured Oh, Lord It's much too young at 24 Three years of hell you stood on trial for your heart And that's just the start 'Cause I know you cry in the middle of nights Don't go downtown 'cause you're scared of the lights, I know I can see it in your eyes And I know that it took a little piece of your life But the way you fought and the way you fight so bold And now you'll never walk alone Hoo-ooh Hoo-ooh Oh, the lifeless faces The lives you're saving Hoo-ooh Hoo-ooh But my heart is breaking It's hard to see you so, so brave Remember when we were kids That time you bust your lip Well you showed no fear and that never changed throughout the years When the jury gave the guilty charge I saw your face and you were the light in the dark Yes you are Yeah, and you were much too young to be falling apart Now all your fears are standing behind bars And that's just the start 'Cause I know you cry in the middle of nights Don't go downtown 'cause you're scared of the lights, I know I can see it in your eyes And I know that it took a little piece of your life But the way you fought and the way you fight so bold And now you'll never walk alone Hoo-ooh Hoo-ooh Oh, the lifeless faces The lives you're saving Hoo-ooh Hoo-ooh But my heart is breaking It's hard to see you so, so brave (so brave, so brave, so brave, so brave) (so brave, so brave, so brave, so brave) (so brave, so brave, so brave) (ah, so brave)
