Never put much stock
To things that glitter
Always thought to put a lock
So they couldn't litter
On my heart

Never wanted success
Or a man by my side
Put me in distress
Having to say good-bye
To my family

Why do we fight
With the ones we love most
Then go be a host
To strangers on the wayside
Thinking that is the most
We can do in a lifetime
When did we lose sight
Of what it was like
To just give love

Never thought I’d
Have to go all alone
To the grave to die
When will I be home
With my family

Never wanted to leave
Always wanted to stay
Couldn’t bear to believe
It could be another way
Out of this hole

Why do we fight
With the ones we love most
Then go be a host
To strangers on the wayside
Thinking that is the most
We can do in a lifetime
When did we lose sight
Of what it was like
To just give love
Why can’t we just give out love
