Lyrics: John Mellencamp. Life, Death, Love and Freedo. Young Without Lovers.

Better take a look at my circle
Better take a look around, tell all my friends
Better take a look at the colors of the people
Young without lovers, old without friends

Better say a prayer for the poor and unhealthy
Better sing a song for those who don?t care
Let the people have the right to be different
Young without lovers, old without friends

Life is an abstraction and it tries to fool us all
And it?s working so far it seems
Brother against brother, this world is such a mess
Behind the drawn curtains so our thoughts can not be seen

Better shake the hand of the hated
Better hear the words, that don?t seem clear
Better take a look around at what we?re doing
Young without lovers, old without friends

Better take a look at my circle
Better take a look around, tell all of my friends
Let the people have the right to be different
Young without lovers, old without friends
Young without lovers, old without friends
Young without lovers, old without friends
