Lamentation

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" Whoa ooh Love is crying (Whoa oh) Love is dying (Whoa oh) Love is crying (Whoa oh) 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" Whoa ooh Love is crying (Whoa oh) Love is dying (Whoa oh) Love is crying (Whoa oh) Can you hear the cries from heaven up above? Looking down upon 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" Through 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 Whoa ooh Love is crying (Whoa oh) Love is dying (Whoa oh) Love is crying (Whoa oh)
