Lyrics

[00:25.68]
[00:26.29] Mother doesn't know where love has gone
[00:33.04] She says it must be youth
[00:35.33] That keeps us feeeling strong
[00:40.11] See it in her face, that's turned to ice
[00:46.18] And when she smiles she shows
[00:48.45] The lines of sacrifice
[00:52.65] And now i know what they're saying
[00:56.34] When the sun begins to fade
[01:01.41] And we made our love on wasteland
[01:07.14] And through the barricades
[01:12.95] Father made my history
[01:18.03] He fought for what he thought
[01:22.08] Would set us somehow free
[01:25.60] He tought me what to say in school
[01:31.87] I learned off by heart
[01:34.68] But now that's torn in two
[01:38.63] And now i know what they're saying
[01:42.16] In the music of the parade
[01:45.78] We made our love on wasteland
[01:52.49] And through the barricades
[02:08.82] Born on different sides of life
[02:15.50] We feel the same
[02:17.17] And feel all of this strife
[02:22.03] So come to me when i'm asleep
[02:28.93] We'll cross the line
[02:30.99] And dance upon the street
[02:34.95] And now i know what they're saying
[02:38.28] When the drums begin to fade
[02:43.58] We made our love on wasteland
[02:48.88] And through the barricades
[02:55.12] Oh, turn around and i'll be there
[03:00.16] There's a scar through my heart
[03:02.03] But i'll bare it again
[03:06.36] I thought?we were the human race
[03:10.38] But we were just another border-line-case
[03:14.98] And the stars reach down and tell us
[03:17.82] That there's always one escape
[03:24.85] I don't know where love has gone
[03:30.54] And in this trouble land
[03:32.83] Desperation keep us strong
[03:37.23] Fridays child is full of soul
[03:43.56] With nothing left to lose
[03:46.54] There's everything to go
[03:50.37] And now i know what they're are saying
[03:54.98] It's a terrible beauty we've made
[03:58.75] So we make our love on?wasteland
[04:04.29] And through the barricades
[04:09.07] Now i know what they're are saying
[04:11.90] As hearts go to their graves
[04:17.11] We made our love on?wasteland
[04:25.06] And through the barricades.
