Rick Astley

Well it was 1969, the streets were on fire
But only in black and white
And I was only a boy, but I saw them crucify
Oh, what an awful sight

And it looked like a holy war
Is anybody keeping score?

Maria Love
Love is needed, can anybody see it?
Maria Love
Why, we wait and hesitate

Well some stayed in bed for peace
And some took giant leaps
A foreigner friend played on a rooftop
All the science in the world couldn't
Save us from ourselves
Oh, lord when will it ever stop?

'Cause it looked like a holy war
Oh, and no one was keeping score

Maria Love
Love is needed, can anybody see it?
Maria Love
Why, we wait and hesistate
Maria Love

Flowers can grow through cement
Great oaks and rivers bend
Power to the people, it's not pretend
When will the madness end?

Well, it looks like a holy war
Is anybody keeping score?

Maria Love
Love is needed, can anybody see it?
Maria Love
Why, we wait and hesistate
Maria Love
Oh its needed, can anybody see it?
Maria Love
