THE WALL CAME TUMBLING DOWN

Recorded on LLGÕs ÒRiver RunÓLP

 

Walking into paths of freedom

With no big brother watching

Why did it take so very long

For the wall to come tumblingdown

 

How could it last such along time, too many dues to be paid

How could it last such along time, too many years have gone by

(repeat)

 

Why did we still turn a blindeye

As the wall grew higher andhigher

No one stopped the powergrowing

As a land became a prisoncamp

Was it fear of consequences

Or that we simply did notcare

 

How could this ever happen. ,

With the whole world lookingon

 

How could it last such along time, too many dues to be paid

How could it last such along time, too many years to wait

 (repeat)

 

How many people buried sons

Before the wall came tumblingdown?

Who'll pay the price offreedom?

Can it ever be a unitedkingdom again?

Will there be a new vision?

A future without a prison

Why did it take so very long?

For the wall to come tumblingdown?

 

How could it last such along time, too many dues to be paid

How could it last such along time, too many years to wait

(repeat)
