There's a guy Who lives in a palace Drinks the night away Just to Forget the here and now His family couldn't stay Everytime that evening Comes around Then the bottle comes to town I can't say with Full assurance What he's going through But I pray Someday he'll realize What this world is coming to Hope that somehow he feels sorry now Breaking promises and vows Everyone around is getting hurt I know everyone around is getting hurt
CHORUS: Hey You You can do what you wanna do But someday You're gonna reap it too That's the law of love Jesus said "You shall love your God With all your heart You shall love your neighbor As yourself" That's the law of love Of love That's the law of love
There's a girl Who lived with her parents Then she ran away It's been days No sign of the little girl No she wouldn't stay All those years of hatred broke her heart Without love they grew apart Some stranger comes around Says come and live with me And she goes Soon days have Turned to months Mom and dad now see As they think of all the years gone by If only they could Turn the tides Everyone around Is getting hurt Yes I know everyone around Is getting hurt
CHORUS
There is someone passin' by Who's desperate inside Who just needs to be loved And helped too There's someone who is dying On the edge of suicide And you can turn the light on With God's love
