Boy George - After The Love

Some kids only sweet sixteen
They 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 is gone
how can we carry on
After the love is gone
how can we carry on
Father is a broken man
He drinks just to forget
Searching for the higher ground
But he ain't found it yet
Every day just like the last Poverty and lust
So hateful of the richer man
Because he ain't like us
After the love is gone
how can we carry on
After the love is gone
what used to be right is wrong
Like walking into a storm
Strangled by religion
Those that still believe
When you don't have nothing
The Lord he will relieve
Television lifestyles
People come on down
Welcome to the future
Your feet won't touch the ground
