Love, in the eyes of a daughter
her father beats her mother it leaves scars in her too
killing her dreams like lambs to the slaughter
crying her eyes out cuz her mothers black and blue
what is love, in the eyes of the raped
when there innocence is taken someone they trust
the cuts go deeper then the ones made bye arms taped
what do you do when your heart turns to dust
whats is love, in the womb of a mother
scraping pennies just to keep her baby alive
nobody cares, they couldn't be bothered
but she has to make it she has to survive
what is love, in the eyes of a soldier
sent overseas to wage war with our brothers
with the freedom of his country resting on his shoulder
he just wants to go home to the arms of his lover
what is love, in these hazel eyes
love has take rounds out of my heart
beaten with deceit and cut with lies
I've felt what it feels when it tears you apart
love can be brutal and love can be tart
love can bash you cut you and rip you apart
love can even break your very heart
and leave you pieces without knowing where to start
but when love is patient and kind
when it understands and protects with its life
when two people come together and for a life time bind
love will conquer all through turmoil and strife
