There was a girl I used to know
 She was oh so beautiful
 But she's not here anymore
 She had a college degree
 Smart as anyone could be
 She had so much to live for
 But she fell in love
 With the wrong kinda man
 He abused her love and treated her so bad
 There was not enough education in her world
 That could save the life of this little girl

 Chorus:
 How come, how long
 It's not right, it's so wrong
 Do we let it just go on
 Turn our backs and carry on
 Wake up, for it's too late
 Right now, we can't wait
 She won't have a second try
 Open up your hearts
 As well as your eyes

 She tried to give a cry for help
 She even blamed things on herself
 But no one came to her aid
 Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell
 That's what we'd like to tell ourselves
 But no, it wasn't that way
 So she fell in love
 With the wrong kinda man
 And she paid with her life
 For loving that man
 So we cannot ignore
 We must look for the signs
 And maybe next time
 We might save somebody's life

 Chorus 

 I on occasion met that guy
 He stirred up bad feelings deep inside
 Something about him wasn't right
 The way he proves himself a man
 By beatin' his woman with his hands
 Oh I wish she'd seen the light
 How can someone like that
 Call himself a man
 In reality he's far more less than that
 And we cannot ignore
 Whenever we see the signs
 'cause any kinda of abuse
 God knows isn't right
