I'm shouting all about love
While they treated you like a dog
When you 
were the one 
who had made it so clear
All those years ago

I'm talking all about how to give
They don't act with much honesty
But you 
point the way 
to the truth when you say
All you need is love
Living with good and bad
I always looked up to you
Now we're left cold and sad
By someone 
the devil's best friend
Someone who offended all
We're living in a bad dream
They've forgotten all about mankind
And you 
were the one they backed up to the wall
All those years ago
You were the one who imagined it all
All those years ago

All those years ago
All those years ago
Deep in the darkest night
I send out a prayer to you
Now in the world of light
Where the spirit free of lies
And all else that we despised
They've forgotten all about God
He's the only reason we exist
Yet you were the one that they said was so weird
All those years ago
You said it all though not many had ears
All those years ago
You had control of our smiles and our tears
All those years ago
All those years ago
All those years ago
All those years ago
