Dare to Love — текст песни (Jimmy Somerville)

(butcher / somerville)



He remembers at 14

He knew what he wanted

He wanted a man no psychiatry

Just to be held to be told it was alright

All he got was a hospital bed

And some pills to sleep at night

In his mind were images so divine

But in his life it was a hell of a time



They locked him away

Because he dared to love

A boy with a man of his own



He wonders if anyone

Has ever heard of him

They kicked in the door

Acting like there was

Some kind of murder going on

Made there love seem dirty

Called him sick called him queer

The law was against him

He was 25 his lover 16

Couldnt believe it was happening

It seemed so unreal

But a cell 12 by 8

Made it all so very real



They locked him away

Because he dared to love

A boy with a mind of his own

He loved a boy with a mind of his own



Where is the crime, where is the crime in love



He loved a boy with a mind of his own

They locked him away

Because he dared to love

A boy with a mind of his own
