There was a girl I used to know

She was oh so beautiful

But she's not here anymore

She had a college degree

Smart as anyone could be

She had so much to live for

But she fell in love

With the wrong kinda of man

He abused her love and treated her so bad

There was not enough education in her world

That could save the life of this little girl

How come,how long

It's not right,it's so wrong

Do we let it just go on

Turn our backs and carry on

Wake up,for it's too late

Right now,we can't wait

She won't have a second try

Open up your hearts

As well as your eyes

She tried to give a cry for help

She even blamed things on herself

But no one came to her aid

Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell

That's why we'd like to tell ourselves

But not!It wasn't that way

So she fell in love

With the wrong kinda of man

And she paid with her life

For loving that man

So we can not ignore

We must look for the signs

And maybe next time we might save somebody's life

How come,how long

It's not right,it's so wrong

Do we let it just go on

Turn our backs and carry on

Wake up,for it's too late

Right now,we can't wait

She won't have a second try

Open up your hearts

As well as your eyes

I on occasion met that guy

Instantly feeling deep inside

Something about him wasn't right

The way he calls himself a man

By beating his woman with his hands

Oh I wish that she had seen the light

How can someone like this call himself a man （He's not a man）

Cuz in reality he's far more less than yeah

And we cannot ignore whenever we see the signs

Cause anykind of abuse god knows is a sign

How come,how long

It's not right,it's so wrong

Do we let it just go on

Turn our backs and carry on

Wake up,for it's too late

Right now,we can't wait

She won't have a second try

Open up your hearts

As well as your eyes
