You can tell how rich a man is By the way he treats his brother You can tell how strong a man is By the way he holds his lover If we hide our love from life That ain't no way to treat each other If we hold it all inside How will we ever find each other? Inside outside You ask the spirit to surround you Nothing is clear, no never was Upside downside You leave nothing behind you Nothing's ever clear, no never was You can tell how rich a man is By the way he treats his brother You can tell how strong a man is By the way he holds his lover You ask me to keep the faith Saying we well be together How much longer will it take 'Til forever turns to never? You search you strive You ask the spirit to surround you Nothing is clear, no never was Inside outside You leave nothing behind you Nothing's ever clear, no never was You say your love's strong But ever since you've been gone I've tried to hold on, so long You say your love's strong Babe ever since you gone Maybe I held on, too long Baby I held on, too long You can tell how rich a man is By the way he treats his brother
