'I want to be an honest man
I'll be your slave, just understand
How much I need you
And if I lie, Im part of you
Is this my crime?
I do know laughter
I do know tears
But all is nothing
without you near
We are of one soul
and If I die
we'll be together
side by side
With you I know
That I can stand
With you I can be
...an honest man'

I dont really know why Im doing a thread on this but dont you think these are the sweetest words youve ever heard...I know the film isn't really up to much (apart from the music) but when i hear this in the film i turn into a quivering wreck of tears and squeaks.....

BTW...did I get all the words correct?? answers on a post card please lol

Is there a version of this with music?

Im not 100% sure but I think he does some harmonies to this on one of the albums....Crystal Ball I think, but dont quote me....
It doesnt do it justice though - its better without music

I have Crystal Ball, but I once read that it had a musical version! Still can't get a confirmation of this, neitheir found a boot with it!

Beautiful lyrics!

I know - this is me each time I hear or read them =

I had a rehearsal version of it years ago on an old boot, but I lost that a long time ago. The CB version is just so short that it's almost unbearable. I love the instrumental, though, that starts UTCM.

IMO - its better kept as words , no music , just keep it as a poem.
