It Takes A Lot To Know A Man Lyrics & Chords By Damien Rice

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 honeybee, the sting
the little girl with wings

it takes a lot to give,
to ask for help, to be yourself
to know and love what you…

it takes a lot to be, to touch, to feel
the slow reveal of what your body needs…

it takes a lot to know a man
a lot to know, to understand
a father and a son
the hunter and the gun

it takes a lot know a woman
a lot to comprehend what’s coming
the mother and the child
the muse and the beguile

it takes a lot to give,
to ask for help, to be yourself,
to know and love what you…

it takes a lot to breathe
to touch, to feel
the slow reveal
of what another body needs…

it takes a lot to give
to ask for help, to be yourself
to know and love what you…

it takes a lot to breathe
to touch, to feel
the slow reveal
of what another body needs…

it takes a lot to live,
to ask for help, to be yourself,
to know and love what you…

it takes a lot to breathe
to touch, to feel
the slow reveal
of what another body needs…

what are you so afraid to lose
what is it you’re thinking
that will happen if you do…
