Freddie Mercury - The Golden Boy (2nd Early Version) video free download

Second early version of The Golden Boy recorded on November 9th 1987.

Lyrics:

Freddie: This time, let it, let it go forward. Dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dahh

The boy had a way with words, he sang

He moved with grace, he entertained

So naturally, no gesture out of place

His road in life was clearly drawn, he didn't hesitate

He played, they saw, he conquered as the master of

As the master of his fate

The girl had an iron soul, no-one could recognise

Material ambition that her gentleness disguised

She pinned a stat to his, in certain knowledge of his fame

Wanted him for luxury, for limelight and his name

I love you for your silence

I love you for your peace

The still and calm releases

That sweeps into my soul

That slowly takes control

I love you for your passion

I love you for your fire

The violent desire

That strips me in its flame

A love, I dare not name

His rise was irresistible, he grew into the part

His explanation simply that he suffered for his art

no base considerations of some glittering reward

The prize was knowing that (ad-libbed lyrics)

Accepting every honour with a masterly display

Of well rehearsed reluctance to be singled out this way

He started to believe that he was all they'd said and more

While she forgot the reasons that she had wanted him before.
