On the day the wall came down
They threw the locks onto the ground
And with glasses high we raised a cry for freedom had arrivedOn the day the wall came down
The Ship of Fools had finally run aground
Promises lit up the night like paper doves in flightI dreamed you had left my side
No warmth, not even pride remained
And even though you needed me
It was clear that I could not do a thing for youNow life devalues day by day
As friends and neighbours turn away
And there's a change that, even with regret, cannot be undoneNow frontiers shift like desert sands
While nations wash their bloodied hands
Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grayI woke to the sound of drums
The music played, the morning sun streamed in
I turned and I looked at you
And all but the bitted residue slipped away…slipped away
Composição: David Gilmour / Polly Samson.
