After the Love

After the love has gone Some kids, only sweet sixteen Think they're really tough You could give them everything It wouldn't be enough Mothers crying all alone What did I do wrong? Raising up a family You've got to be so strong After the love has gone How can we carry on? After the love has gone How can we carry on? Father is a broken man He drinks to forget He's searching for the higher gound But he ain't found it yet Everyday just like the last Poverty and lust So hateful of the richer man Because he ain't like us After the love has gone How can we carry on? After the love has gone What used to be right is wrong Like walking into a storm Walking into a storm Strangled by religion Those that still believe When you don't have nothing The lord he will relieve Television lifestyle People come on down Welcome to the future Your feet won't touch the ground Your feet won't touch the ground After the love has gone How can we carry on? After the love has gone What used to be right is wrong Like walking into a storm
