Johnny Clegg & Savuka - Berlin Wall lyrics

rate me

Welcome to my island

But please don't you stay too long

I wouldn't want anyone to think

That something's going on

Toe the line

And you'll be fine

You'll see another day

Don't connect,

Don't reflect,

Just fetch your weekly pay

Oh sister don't you feel

What I know inside my bones

I'll meet you on the underground

And we'll make a call on the telephone

Chorus:

Berlin Wall

Can you hear this call

For one world, one nation

Who can it be banging at my door

I can't trust anyone anymore

I drink my beer in a state of fear

Is tyher no salvation

Wire on the gate,

Barbs of hate

To separate one nation

Around your heart

A ring of steel

I can't get out

And I can't get in.

One for all, and all for one

Is the way it should be

Every river I know

Is dreaming of the sea

My body feels like a prison to me

I'd like to fly and touch you

With a sacred dream

Come on, mama, don't delay

I know you think I'm far away

I'm only looking for a sign --

Are you ready to cross the line?

Chorus....
