bravest boy - dave steel lyrics
in the dusty summer schoolyard we met in the midday sun
i remember all those cricket matches that we never won
how you wanted to be as good as ginger baker
how you’d bash those drums
in the sandhills at the beacon we’d surf and swear and drink
trying to impress the pretty ones; unsuccessfully i think
and every pub in carlton later on
finding out how many we could sink
and all that time i never knew
the sickness in you started and it grew
apt to destroy
and you always were the bravest boy…
you took up medication, had to give up on the drink
and you went and got yourself married to the sweetest girl we knew
i think i wondered how you did it
but i saw you less and less, i was crazy then i think….
what they gave you slowed you down, you were grinding to a halt
you said something’s got to change, i’ll take the chance
then it’s no*one’s fault
when i saw you in that hospital i could’ve cried
i realised the chances you had bought
with all those scars upon your head
your eyes were laughing, you sat up and said
it’s a gambler’s joy
and you always were the bravest boy…
friends come and go so quickly, there’s so many i forget
just faces in some photograph, just someone that you met
but i always do remember you
i haven’t come across one quite like you yet
i think of you, your family
your children sit upon your knee and laugh
don’t be so coy
you always were the bravest boy…
