Mother doesn't know where love has gone She says it must be youth that keeps us feeling strong I see it in a face that's turned to ice And when she smiles she shows the lines of sacrifice And now I know what they're saying as our sun begins to fade And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades Father made my history And fought for what he thought would set us somehow free He taught me what to say in school I learned it off by heart but now that's time too And now I know what they're saying in the music of the parade And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades Born on different sides of life We feel the same and feel all of their strife So come to me when I'm asleep We'll cross the lines and dance upon the streets And now I know what they're saying as the drums begin to fade And we made our love on wasteland and through the barricades Oh, turn around and I'll be there There's a scar right through my heart but I'll bear it again Oh, I thought we were the human race But we were just another borderline case And the stars reach down and tell us That there's always one escape Oh, I don't know where our love has gone In this troubled land desperation keeps us strong The brightest child is full of soul Nothing left to lose, there's everything to go And now I know what they're saying It's a terrible beauty we've made So we make our love on wasteland and through the barricades And now I know what they're saying As our hearts go to their graves We made our love on wasteland and through the barricades And now I know what they're saying It's a terrible beauty we've made So we make our love on wasteland and through the barricades And now I know what they're saying As our hearts go to their graves We made our love on wasteland and through the barricades And now I know what they're saying Thanks for watching!
