There was a girl I used to know[00:00:24]
She was oh so beautiful[00:00:27]
But she's not here anymore[00:00:30]
She had a college degree[00:00:36]
Smart as anyone could be[00:00:39]
She had so much to live for[00:00:42]
But she fell in love[00:00:47]
With the wrong kinda of man[00:00:49]
He abused her love and treated her so bad[00:00:53]
There was not enough education in her world[00:00:59]
That could save the life of this little girl[00:01:05]
How come how long[00:01:10]
It's not right it's so wrong[00:01:13]
Do we let it just go on[00:01:16]
Turn our backs and carry on[00:01:19]
Wake up for it's too late[00:01:22]
Right now we can't wait[00:01:25]
She won't have a second try[00:01:28]
Open up your hearts[00:01:30]
As well as your eyes[00:01:33]
She tried to give a cry for help[00:01:47]
She even blamed things on herself[00:01:50]
But no one came to her aid[00:01:52]
Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell[00:01:59]
That's why we'd like to tell ourselves[00:02:02]
But not It wasn't that way[00:02:04]
So she fell in love[00:02:10]
With the wrong kinda of man[00:02:12]
And she paid with her life[00:02:15]
For loving that man[00:02:18]
So we can not ignore[00:02:22]
We must look for the signs[00:02:24]
And maybe next time we might save somebody's life[00:02:28]
How come how long[00:02:32]
It's not right it's so wrong[00:02:36]
Do we let it just go on[00:02:39]
Turn our backs and carry on[00:02:42]
Wake up for it's too late[00:02:45]
Right now we can't wait[00:02:48]
She won't have a second try[00:02:51]
Open up your hearts[00:02:54]
As well as your eyes[00:02:56]
I on occasion met that guy[00:03:21]
Instantly feeling deep inside[00:03:25]
Something about him wasn't right[00:03:28]
The way he calls himself a man[00:03:34]
By beating his woman with his hands[00:03:37]
Oh I wish that she had seen the light[00:03:40]
How can someone like this call himself a man (He's not a man)[00:03:45]
Cuz in reality he's far more less than yeah[00:03:51]
And we cannot ignore whenever we see the signs[00:03:56]
Cause anykind of abuse god knows is a sign[00:04:03]
How come how long[00:04:09]
It's not right it's so wrong[00:04:11]
Do we let it just go on[00:04:14]
Turn our backs and carry on[00:04:17]
Wake up for it's too late[00:04:20]
Right now we can't wait[00:04:23]
She won't have a second try[00:04:26]
Open up your hearts[00:04:29]
As well as your eyes[00:04:31]
