Grow up children, don't you suffer

At the hands of one another

If you like a sleeping demon

Listen can you hear him weeping

Tears of joy and tears of sorrow

He buys love to sell tomorrow



My life ain't no holiday

I've been through the point of no return

I've seen what a man can do

I've seen all the hate of a woman too



Feel your heartbeat lose the rhythm

He can't touch the world we live in

Life is short but love is strong

There lies a hope that I have found

And if you try you'll find it too

Remember why I'm telling you



My life ain't no holiday

I've been through the point of no return

I've seen what a man can do

I've seen all the hate of a woman too



And they gave him away

Like in 'Whistle Down The Wind'

By the look on his face

He never gave in
