IT'S ONLY ME I stood upon that bridge and I defied them all While they hurled abuse and pathetic little stones Always in my childish mind exists this other world Dignified and kind, so hard to find I heard somebody say, we're not ready for that day We are a band of brothers We are the spark of what can be We are the blades of gra** in the breeze It's only me It's only me You barely spoke a word of english As you stood on those steps Sometimes I try to see life through your eyes The haze and maze of how adulthood has blinded me As you stood there in that funny old coat With your scuffed shoes and your cuffs a little chewed And it breaks my heart to see how hard your life has been God knows you're more powerful than them 'cos you've got time Dignified and kind We are a band of brothers We are the spark of what can be We are the blades of gra** in the breeze It's only me We are a band of brothers We are the spark of what can be We are the cogs in the machine It's only me It's only me
