I saw my brother
He did me wrong
He put a gun up to my face
My money's gone

I said please don't be that way
I'm just trying to make it through the day
He said you better not come 'round me before too long

chorus:
Whoo ooh
Love is crying(whoo ooh)
Love is dying(whoo ooh)
Love is crying(whoo ooh)
Omm

I saw my sister
she did me wrong
I had a smile upon my face
but hers were so cold

I said sister please don't go
I'm just trying to say hello
She said you better not come 'round me
before too long and I said

chorus

Can you hear the cries fro heaven up above
Looking down this world of dying love
Open up your heart, hurry don't delay
Before the chance to save the world is gone away

I asked my father, Lord what's wrong
Thru his tears i heard him say
child be strong
Cause the world i'm trying to save
done turned me away
But they better come 'round my way before too long

Chorus.
