Love & Compassion Lyrics by Hall & Oates

I used to think love was a dying art

Compassion couldnt live within a crowded heart

I saw my freedom in a poor mans eyes

Hope like a light, will to survive

A sense of dignity to hold up high

These are the simple things

That keep us all alive

And though the rich buy power for a time

One thing that money cant buy


Chorus


Love and compassion

(only) love and compassion

Give it to you

Give it to me

Love and compassion

(only) love and compassion

Thats what it takes

(give love...youre gonna feel love...

Ooo... feel love... youre gonna give love)


One night when I was feelin all alone

I saw a shadow walking in the danger zone

I knew that I would have to make a choice

Hunger in my heart, hunger in my spirit

We wont be free until we equalize

The price of power to the price of every life

And though I know its gonna take some time

Someday were all gonna find


Love and compassion

(onlv) love and compassion

Give it to you

Give it to me

Love and compassion

(only) love and compassion

Thats what it takes to relate


Love and compassion

(only) love and compassion

Give it to you

Give it to me

(oniy) love und compassion

Thats what it takes

(give love... ooo feel love... youre gonna

Feel love... if you give love)


Love und compassion

Love und compassion

Love und compassion

Love und compassion

Love und compassion

(only) love und compassion

Give it to you

Give it to me

Love and compassion

Someday were gonna find it


Oh when I was alone

And I reached out for more

I just opened my eyes

Love und compassion

I know it will take some time

But you know were gonna make it come true

Love and compassion

All my love and compassion

Love und compassion

Love und compassion


All my love, all my love und compassion

Someday, someday were gonna find it, realize it

Take some time to give

Love und compassion

Hope iike a light, and a will to survive...
