Saw an old friend yesterday
|
Guess we both had too much to say
|
Seems we've taken different sides
|
All caught up in politics and pride
|
|
If we can get beyond the blame
|
I know we would see we are still the same
|
The distance between us will fade
|
There will be no distance between us someday
|
|
In that distant land across the sea
|
There are people just like you and me
|
They just want to see their children grow
|
And feel the same love we all know
|
When we get beyond all the hurt and blame
|
And realize we are all the same
|
The distance between us will fade
|
There'll be no distance between us someday
|
|
We can rise up
|
Join each other
|
We can build a bridge
|
Brother to brother
|
Take the steps
|
We need to take
|
To get us to a better place
|
|
Where the distance between us will fade
|
There will be no distance between us one of these days
|
One of these days
|
|
We can rise up
|
Join each other
|
We can build a bridge
|
Brother to brother
|
Take the steps
|
We need to take
|
To get us to a better place
|
Where the distance between us fades away
|
There will be no distance between us one of these days
|
|
One of these days
|
|
We can rise up
|
Join each other
|
We can build a bridge
|
Brother to brother
|
No distance
|
Between us
|
One of these days
|
