Laggan Rhye - Be

You are tall, strong and fearless
You stand bold against me
And when you try to face me
I can only laugh: I want to be

You are small, wrong and careless
You hide yourself from me
And when I try to find you
I can only smile: I want to be

Be rich or be righteous
Just any which way I might
Tomorrow will tell us who’s right
Time will judge the past, I want to be

Misplaced seconds
Misplaced minutes
Misplaced days
A life lived in the past

Be as ever I want to be
Be as ever --- YOU ARE
Be as to hands held together
Be forever --- WE ARE

Be as how I want to be
Be as how --- YOU ARE
Be as to hearts beat together
Be forever --- WE ARE

We are bright, bold and dauntless
we stand, we walk, we run
And when they try to sway us
I can only laugh: I want to be

We are smart, brave and careless
We hide, conceal, we blot out
And when they try to find us
I can only smile: I want to be

Be rich or be righteous
Just any which way I might
Tomorrow will tell us who’s right
Time will judge the past, I want to be
