Wall Of Love Lyrics - Street Fighting Years - 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
