It Takes a Lot to Know a Man Lyrics
by Damien Rice
==INTRO==
==VERSE==
It takes a lot to know a man
It takes a lot to understand
The warrior, the sage
The little boy in rage
It takes a lot to know a woman
A lot to understand what's humming
The honey-bee, that stings
The little girl with wings
==CHORUS==
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 be, to touch, to feel, the slow re-veal
of what another body needs
==VERSE==
It tales a lot to know a man
A lot to know to understand
the father and the son
the hunted and the gone
It takes a lot to know a woman
A lot to comprehend what's coming
The mother and the child
The muse and the beguiled
==CHORUS==
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 be, to touch, to feel, the slow reveal
of what another body needs
==CHORUS==
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 be, to touch, to feel, the slow reveal
of what another body needs
==CHORUS==
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 be, to touch, to feel, the slow reveal
of what another body needs
==BRIDGE==
What are you so afraid to lose?
What is it you're thinking that will happen if you do? (so afraid to lose)
What are you so afraid to lose?
What is it you're thinking that will happen if you do? (It takes a lot to know a man...)
What are you so afraid to lose? (It takes a lot to know a man...)
What is it you're thinking that will happen if you do? (It takes a lot to know a man...)
What is it you carry on your bag? (It takes a lot to know a man...)
What is it you notice when you can't laugh? (Know you can, have to know...)
