Read My Name Lyrics - Chris De Burgh

Chris De Burgh - Read My Name 

For every child that has been born 

There is a chance to shine, 

And everyone can have a dream 

Until the end of time, 

So live for every moment 

As the world keeps turning round, 

And lift your hands up to the sky 

And say it loud and proud, 

"I have been here, 

Read my name, 

Read my name! "

For every child that has been born 

There is a chance in life, 

To try it all and be someone 

With what we have inside, 

So don't give up and don't give in, 

Just give it all instead, 

And raise your voice above the crowd 

And let them know You've said 

"I have been here, 

Read my name, 

Read my name; 

With all I've got I've taken part, 

I've made a difference to the world, 

I have been here 

Just read my name!" 

Photos 

Endlessly amazing and inventive that we are, 

We dive the deepest oceans and 

We reach out for the stars, 

And one day there will be a man 

Across the universe, 

Who'll say "I come from Planet Earth" 

and these will be his words; 

"I have been here, 

Read my name, 

Read my name; 

With all I've got I've taken part, 

I've made a difference to the world, 

I have been here, 

Just read my name!" 

And when the darkness has to fall 

And comes the end of days, 

Then lift your hands up to the sky 

And say it once again... 

"I have been here and I have taken part, 

I've made a difference to the world 

I have been here, 

Just read my name!" 

"I have been here... 

Just read my name. 

I've taken part... 

Reach for the stars, 

Across the universe... 

We come from Planet Earth."
