|
oh from far and away they came |
|
oh from far and away |
|
oh battling giants with chains |
|
on the crest of a wave |
|
oh when the darkness rose |
|
oh it came with a squall |
|
first |
|
first there were shouts then they froze |
|
and all were silenced by the wall |
|
wall of water |
|
oh the walls of the deep |
|
walls i'd rather not keep |
|
walls made of wire |
|
oh the walls in the ground |
|
walls i'm no longer building oh |
|
i'm tearing them down |
|
oh to far and away they fled |
|
oh to far and away |
|
carrying emptiness |
|
on the backs of their dead |
|
but oh when the new day rose |
|
oh there was room for them all |
|
first |
|
they spread ashes and seeds |
|
all along the ruins of the wall |
|
walls of the desert |
|
oh the walls of the sand |
|
walls that no longer stand |
|
walls made of wire |
|
oh the walls in the ground |
|
walls i'm no longer building oh |
|
wall of water |
|
oh the walls of the deep |
|
walls i'd rather not keep |
|
walls made of wire |
|
oh the walls in the ground |
|
walls i'm no longer building oh |
|
i'm tearing them down |
|
oh from far and away they sang |
|
oh from far and away |
