[00:24.84] | There was a girl I used to know |
[00:27.90] | She was oh so beautiful |
[00:29.84] | |
[00:30.91] | But she's not here anymore |
[00:34.95] | |
[00:36.58] | She had a college degree |
[00:39.64] | Smart as anyone could be |
[00:42.76] | She had so much to live for |
[00:46.54] | |
[00:47.43] | But she fell in love |
[00:49.85] | With the wrong kinda of man |
[00:53.20] | He abused her love and treated her so bad |
[00:58.52] | |
[00:59.72] | There was not enough education in her world |
[01:05.03] | That could save the life of this little girl |
[01:10.98] | How come, how long |
[01:13.87] | It's not right, it's so wrong |
[01:16.84] | Do we let it just go on |
[01:19.79] | Turn our backs and carry on |
[01:22.69] | Wake up, for it's too late |
[01:25.64] | Right now, we can't wait |
[01:28.60] | She won't have a second try |
[01:30.52] | Open up your hearts |
[01:33.68] | As well as your eyes |
[01:39.24] | |
[01:47.69] | She tried to give a cry for help |
[01:50.09] | She even blamed things on herself |
[01:52.63] | But no one came to her aid |
[01:58.42] | |
[01:59.81] | Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell |
[02:02.57] | That's why we'd like to tell ourselves |
[02:04.61] | But not! It wasn't that way |
[02:10.02] | So she fell in love |
[02:12.95] | With the wrong kinda of man |
[02:15.99] | And she paid with her life |
[02:18.01] | For loving that man |
[02:22.02] | So we can not ignore |
[02:24.31] | We must look for the signs |
[02:28.16] | And maybe next time we might save somebody's life |
[02:32.96] | How come, how long |
[02:36.80] | It's not right, it's so wrong |
[02:39.82] | Do we let it just go on |
[02:42.92] | Turn our backs and carry on |
[02:45.83] | Wake up, for it's too late |
[02:48.77] | Right now, we can't wait |
[02:51.67] | She won't have a second try |
[02:54.64] | Open up your hearts |
[02:56.43] | As well as your eyes |
[03:01.97] | |
[03:21.70] | I on occasion met that guy |
[03:25.65] | Instantly feeling deep inside |
[03:28.68] | Something about him wasn't right |
[03:32.01] | |
[03:34.42] | The way he calls himself a man |
[03:37.38] | By beating his woman with his hands |
[03:40.46] | Oh I wish that she had seen the light |
[03:45.09] | How can someone like this call himself a man (He's not a man) |
[03:51.26] | Cuz in reality he's far more less than yeah |
[03:56.80] | And we cannot ignore whenever we see the signs |
[04:03.03] | Cause anykind of abuse god knows is a sign |
[04:09.43] | How come, how long |
[04:11.68] | It's not right, it's so wrong |
[04:14.66] | Do we let it just go on |
[04:17.69] | Turn our backs and carry on |
[04:20.66] | Wake up, for it's too late |
[04:23.67] | Right now, we can't wait |
[04:26.64] | She won't have a second try |
[04:29.55] | Open up your hearts |
[04:31.41] | As well as your eyes |
