I'm shoutin' all about love While they treated you like a dog But you were the one who had made it so clear All those years ago Talkin' all about how to give They don't act with much honesty, but you Worked away to the truth when you said All you need is love Baby, with good or bad I always looked up to you But now we're left cold inside By someone, the devil's best friend Some more to offend, you know We're living in a bad dream They've forgotten all about mankind And you were the one they backed up to All, all those years ago You were the one who imagined it all All those years ago All those years ago All those years ago All those years ago Deep in the darkest night I sent out a prayer to you Oh, in the world of light Where the spirit breathes alive All else that we despise They've forgotten all about God It's the only reason we exist Yet you were the one that they said was so weird All those years ago You said it all, though not many had ears All those years ago You had control of our smiles and our tears All those years ago You, you, you, you, you, you All those years ago You, you, you, you, you, you All those years ago All those years ago You, you, you, you, you All those years ago
