There was a girl I used to know

She was oh so beautiful

She's not here anymore

She had a college degree

Smart as anyone could be

Had so much to live for

But she fell in love

With the wrong kind 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 far as we could tell

That's what we'd like to tell ourselves

But no, it wasn't that way

So she fell in love

With the wrong kind of man

And she paid with her life

For loving that man

So we cannot 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

Oh I on occasion met that guy

It's been a feeling deep inside

Some about it wasn't right

The way he proves himself a man

By beating his woman with his hands

Always wishing that she'd seen the light

How can someone like that call himself a man

He's not a man

In reality, he's far more less than

And we cannot ignore

Whenever we see the signs

Cause any kind of abuse

God knows, it's a crime

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
