Baby Be Brave

[DazedOblivion]

It's one of my earliest favourite songs of the Corrs, and actually one of the first five songs of theirs that I heard. The quirky rhythm of the verse (such as "as fast as they bow down they’ll leave you behind"). And those harmonies had a big part in making me a fan.

What's the song about, do you think?

Maybe deep down inside, you don’t believe it
Your wailing wall, it isn’t weeping at all
And you’re not worthy of adoration
You’re scared that somebody somewhere’s gonna find
the burst pipe
And as fast as they bow down they’ll leave you behind

But baby be brave cause what’s the point of it all
What’s the point of it all yeah
Baby don’t blow it, tell me what’s it all for
If you’re not terrified to fail
Are you terrified to fail?

Way far down below you don’t feel it
Yeah everyone knows but we don’t believe it
The pain of a pop star you’re breaking my heart

But baby be brave ‘cause what’s the point of it all
What’s the point of it all yeah?
Baby don’t blow it, tell me what’s it all for
If you’re not terrified to fail

(Confide in me, tell your story)
Are you terrified to fail?
(It’s your fear that makes you worthy)

I know what you’re doing ‘cause
God I’ve been tempted, you are
Drowning the special to
Immortalize the rise
And what’s the point of it all

Baby be brave ‘cause what’s the point of it all
What’s the point of it all yeah?
Baby don’t blow it, tell me what’s it all for
If you’re not terrified to fail

(Confide in me, tell your story)
Are you terrified to fail?
(It’s your fear that makes you worthy)
I am terrified to fail
(Confide in me, tell your story)
Are you terrified to fail?
(It’s your fear that makes you worthy)
