A soldier cut loose in Saigon
He use to be a farmer just like anyone
A soldier cut loose in Saigon
Even to his father he's a violent son
Someone built a wall in Berlin
Not to keep them out but to keep them in
Someone built a wall in Berlin
A permanent remainder of what's happening
We need a lot of love
Got to take a lot of pain
You can watch the river flood
But get washed away the same
Oh we know the things don't last
So we used the guiding tracks
Through the deadly ring of flame
Smoking in a room in Lebanon
The hotels serving but the hospitals gone
Choking in a room in Lebanon
Many people hurting still the telephones on
Standing on a street in Belfast
A city of division window in black
Standing on a street in Belfast
Crunching of the feet on a broken glass
We need a lot of love
Got to take a lot of pain
You can watch the river flood
But get washed away the same
Oh we know the things don't last
So we used the guiding tracks
Through the deadly ring of flame
We need a lot of love
Got to take a lot of pain
You can watch the river flood
But get washed away the same
Oh we know the things don't last
So we used the guiding tracks
Through the deadly ring of flame
We need a lot of love
Got to take a lot of pain
You can watch the river flood
But get washed away the same
Oh we know the things don't last
So we used the guiding tracks
Through the deadly ring of flame
