Rick Astley Maria Love
[Verse 1]
Well it was 1969, the streets were on fire
But only in black and white
And I was only a boy, but I saw them crucify
Oh, what an awful sight
[Pre-Chorus]
And it looked like a holy war
Is anybody keeping score?
[Chorus]
Maria Love
Love is needed, can anybody see it?
Maria Love
Why, we wait and hesitate
[Verse 2]
Well some stayed in bed for peace
And some took giant leaps
A foreigner friend played on a rooftop
All the science in the world couldn't
Save us from ourselves
Oh, lord when will it ever stop?
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause it looked like a holy war
Oh, and no one was keeping score
[Chorus]
Maria Love
Love is needed, can anybody see it?
Maria Love
Why, we wait and hesistate
Maria Love
[Bridge]
Flowers can grow through cement
Great oaks and rivers bend
Power to the people, it's not pretend
When will the madness end?
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, it looks like a holy war
Is anybody keeping score?
[Chorus]
Maria Love
Love is needed, can anybody see it?
Maria Love
Why, we wait and hesistate
Maria Love
Oh its needed, can anybody see it?
Maria Love
