Wall Of Love Lyrics
Ooh, great wall of love, build me a great wall of love
Oh, when the blind man sings about the peaceful things
You shout that it's not good enoughAh, we wait till daylight hours
Waiting for a sign from you
Golden temples concrete towers
Building mansions on the hillside next to youIn the city souls awaken bodies shaking
Oh, pull me up let me see the view
To the hungry in the gutter
We've deprived them bread and butter
Always not enough, no not enoughGreat wall of love, build me a great wall of love
When the blind man sings about the peaceful things
You shout that it's still not enoughAh well it's not the sound of ghosts I hear
It's the devil with his chainsaw
And I'll be running through the ghettos
Through the townships of Soweto
Always not enough, no not enoughBrothers missing, babies kissing
And the thing that got to you
Burning never turning next to youOoh, great wall of love, build me a great wall of love
When the blind man sings about the peaceful things
You shout that it's still not enoughSo listen to me darling
They've got worries they've got troubles on their mind
And when you hear them reaching out
They're reaching out for something they can't findOh, I believe one great day the rain will come
And wash this mess away
Oh, I believe one great day the rain will comeThey've got silver and diamonds
They've got paradise around them
They've got blue skies so clear
They've got their prisoner in a wagon
While the children chase the dragon
And the free bird files so clearIt files away
Fly, fly, fly away
Fly away
Oh, you fly awayAnd may your sweet lips so sing to me
Let the bells ring wherever freedom be
One babe is born and another one dies
There's people making love tonightPeople making love tonight
Ah, people making love tonight
People making love, people making love tonight
People making loveI can hear them reaching out
I can hear them reaching out
I can hear them reaching out
I can hear them reaching out
