Song Lyrics

Mr. Love and Justice, please, tell me what am I to do
Everything you told me, I found out none of it was true
I'm looking for some answers to these problems I face
Desertion should mean disgrace, so tell me do I have a case

And I know that nothing is forever
But still though I want to make the effort
So he knows you just can't walk away

Mr. Love and Justice, I ask you, is it really fair
If all of that commitment just vanishes in the air?
Feel I'm on a one way ticket to the end of the line
It won't stop the children crying but I want some justice this time

I'm still waking up in the morning with a troubled mind
Can't believe he left me, how could I be so blind?
What else can I do but make this appeal to you
Is there any love or justice in the world today for me?

Mr. Love and Justice, if there's one thing that I must do
If only for my own sake I've got to see this thing through
I've just got to find out if I was right or I was wrong
Then I'll believe he's gone, pick myself up and move on

'cause I know nothing is forever
But still though I want to make the effort
So he knows you just can't walk away

Billy Bragg
