BOY GEORGE - After The Love lyrics

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

Everyady 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
