Lyrics: I Have Lived, by Alastair Griffin
Take a look at me, oh tell me what you find
A drunken fool, a lazy womanising kind
Well maybe so, but you don't know the life I've had
I walked with kings, I lost it all
But hey, I'm glad
And when they bring the news that I was drinking champagne when I died
And my sixth wife will tell the gathered crowds "Now please, don't cry"
You see, my friend
I have lived each moment of each day
And I have lived, you can't take that away
I lived, I died, I laughed, I cried
Cheated and I was forgiven
But most of all I have lived
Cocktail shaker and bookmaker are my friends
Drink from dusk till dawn, the laughter never ends
Well you, you look at me and tell me that's no way to live
Well I reply I gave it all I have to give
And I have lived, I have died
I have laughed and I have cried
I have loved, I have lost, I risked it all, I paid the cost
And when they bring the news that I was drinking champagne when I died
And my sixth wife will tell the gathered crowds "Now, please don't cry"
You see, my friends
I have lived
And when they bring the news that I was drinking champagne when I died
And my sixth wife will tell the gathered crowds "Now, please don't cry"
She'll say, my friends, he lived.
