There are two sides to every story The truth leaves where it don't belong It's a tricky line that we're walkin' When we got so many people talkin' Nobody thinks that they're wrong How you gonna love someone if you don't forgive them? How you gonna hear what they say if you never listen? How you gonna stand up when the world wants you kneelin'? How you gonna live out the words you're preachin' If you don't believe them? Mmm-hmm-mmm This flood isn't made up of water But somehow we all drown anyway We make the ugly look so pretty and the innocent so guilty In all of these games that we play How you gonna love someone if you don't forgive them? How you gonna hear what they say if you never listen? How you gonna stand up when the world wants you kneelin'? How you gonna live out the words you're preachin' If you don't believe them? Ooh ooh-ooh, ooh Oh, how you gonna live them...? Yeah Ooh ooh-ooh, ooh If you don't believe them? Ooh ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh-ooh, ooh How you gonna love someone if you don't forgive them? How you gonna hear what they say if you never listen? How you gonna stand up when the world wants you kneelin'? How you gonna live out the words you're preachin' If you don't believe them?
