Story Behind The Song
I see so many people ignore the needs of the homeless and this song is hopefully an inspiration to love all men and women the same regardless of race, income, social status or position.
Song Description
This song tells of whether we see a homeless man or woman on the street or whether we are having a difficult time in a relationship, we need to love everybody unconditionally and without giving up.

Lyrics
You Can Love
Verse 1: Oh you see him walking endlessly along a busy street
Doing everything just to try to get by,
You can only shed an empty stare and you don't even care
But you are unaware that he needs you tonight
You say there's nothing you can do but broken hearts are hard to bruise
Chorus: Black and white emotionless you live a lonely lie
That the world cannot be altered by a single life
You carry on and do the ordinary things that you have always done
But you can love
Verse 2: You can feel hope slowly fade as she turns away
Wishing things would change as you're dying alone,
Oh you think you've tried everything but she is out of reach
Your reality is beyond your control
You lie in silence in the dark side by side and worlds apart
Chorus: Shallow words a deeper hurt that you cannot repair
The more you try you realize you can't go anywhere
In disarray you feel that you are on the very edge of giving up
But you can love
Bridge: With all your weapons on the floor there is no way to start a war
So what are you still fighting for?
Chorus: When all the world has turned against the good in every man
Broken down you don't even have the strength to stand
Don't give up cause you will always have another way to overcome
You can love you can love you can love
