I used to think love was a dying art      Compassion couldn't live within a crowded heart      I saw my freedom in a poor man's eyes      Hope like a light, will to survive      A sense of dignity to hold up high      These are the simple things      That keep us all alive      And though the rich buy power for a time      One thing that money can't buy            Chorus            Love and compassion      (only) love and compassion      Give it to you      Give it to me      Love and compassion      (only) love and compassion      That's what it takes      (give love...you're gonna feel love...      Ooo... feel love... you're gonna give love)            One night when I was feelin' all alone      I saw a shadow walking in the danger zone      I knew that I would have to make a choice      Hunger in my heart, hunger in my spirit      We won't be free until we equalize      The price of power to the price of every life      And though I know it's gonna take some time      Someday we're all gonna find            Love and compassion      (onlv) love and compassion      Give it to you      Give it to me      Love and compassion      (only) love and compassion      That's what it takes to relate            Love and compassion      (only) love and compassion      Give it to you      Give it to me      (oniy) love und compassion      That's what it takes      (give love... ooo feel love... you're gonna      Feel love... if you give love)            Love und compassion      Love und compassion      Love und compassion      Love und compassion      Love und compassion      (only) love und compassion      Give it to you      Give it to me      Love and compassion      Someday we're gonna find it            Oh when I was alone      And I reached out for more      I just opened my eyes      Love und compassion      I know it will take some time      But you know we're gonna make it come true      Love and compassion      All my love and compassion      Love und compassion      Love und compassion            All my love, all my love und compassion      Someday, someday we're gonna find it, realize it      Take some time to give      Love und compassion      Hope iike a light, and a will to survive...
