You Have Been Loved (mtv Unplugged) Lyrics - George Michael

She takes the back road and the lane 

Past the school that has not changed 

In all this time 

She thinks of when the boy was young 

All the battles she had won 

Just to give him life 

That man 

She loved that man 

For all his life 

But now we meet to bring him flowers 

And only God knows why 

For what's the use in pressing palms 

When children fade in mother's arms 

It's a cruel world 

We've so much to loose 

And what we have to learn we rarely choose

So if it's God who took her son 

He cannot be the one living in her mind 

Take care my love, she said 

Don't think that God is dead 

Take care my love, she said 

If I was weak, forgive me 

But I was terrified 

You brushed my eyes with angels wings, full of love 

The kind that makes devils cry 

So these days 

My life has changed 

And I'll be fine 

But she just sits and counts the hours 

Searching for her crime 

Photos 

So what's the use of pressing palms 

If you won't keep such love from harm 

It's a cruel world 

You've so much to prove 

And heaven helps the ones who wait for you 

Well I've no daughters, I've no sons 

Guess I'm the only one 

Living in my life 

Take care my love, he said 

Don't think that God is dead 

Take care my love, he said 

You have been loved.
