Wall of Love - Simple Minds

Ooh 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 not good enough

Ah we wait till daylight hours

Waiting for a sign from you

Golden temples concrete towers

Building mansions on the hillside next to you

In the city souls awaken bodies shaking

Oh pull me up let me see the view

And to the hungry in the gutter

We've deprived them bread and butter

Always not enough

No not enough

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 enough.

Ah 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 enough

Brothers missing, babies kissing

And the thing that got to you

Burning never turning next to you

Ooh 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 enough

So 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 find

Oh I believe one great day the rain will come

And wash this mess away

Oh I believe one great day the rain will come

They'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 flies so clear

It flies away

Fly fly fly away

Fly away

Oh you fly away

And may your sweet lips sing to me

Let the bells ring wherever freedom be

One babe is born and another one dies

There's people making love tonight

People making love tonight

Ah people making love tonight

People making love

People making love tonight

People making love

I can hear them reaching out

I can hear them reaching out

I can hear them reaching out

I can hear them reaching out
