Never took a punch in the ribcage, sonny
Never met a soul who had no shrine
Keep this all in your mind and get it inside my window

What do we become trying to kill each other?
You're faking it son, gonna get you tonight
I suck another breath to the hearts of the revolution
Because you still ain't right

Where did all the love go?
I don't know, I don't know
(I bet you can't see it)
Where did all the love go?
I don't know, I don't know
(I bet you can't see it)

Can't see the signs of a real change a comin'?
Take another sip from your hobo's wine
Get yourself a million miles from the concrete jungle

This is a time full of fear, full of anger
A hero's exchange for a telephone line
Whatever happened to the youth of this generation
Because it still ain't right

Where did all the love go?
I don't know, I don't know
(I bet you can't see it)
Where did all the love go?
Now I don't know why, oh why

The rivers of the pavement are flowing now with blood
The children of the future are drowning in the flood

Where did all the love go?
Now I don't know why, oh why

In this social chaos there's violence in the air
Gotta keep your wits about you, be careful not to stare

Where did all the love go?
I don't know, I don't know
(I bet you can't see it)
Where did all the love go?
Now I don't know why, oh why
(I bet you can't see it)
