Lyrics
[Verse 1] Children were clearing roads were lost in the sand Trying to join their father's castles together again Will they make it? Hey, who knows where or when Old wounds will mend? [Verse 2] Shots ringing all along the border can be heard Pouring down like a venom from the sky Cutting through the air, faster than a bird In the night [Verse 3] A machine was winding its way along, looking strong Building roads and bringing back loads and loads Of building materials In the night [Verse 4] Men were trying to move the borders on the ground Lines between the different spots that each has found But back home another scene was going down In the night [Verse 5] Lust came creeping through the night to feed on hearts Of suburban wives who learned to pretend When they met dream's end In the night [Bridge] But I'll never use your love, you know I'm not like that And so if you give your heart to me I promise to to use whatever we do That I will always be true [Verse 6] Children were lost in the sand, clearing roads with little hands Trying to join their father's castles together again Will they make it? Hey, who knows where or when Old wounds will mend? [Instrumental Break] [Outro] Thank you Not easy being a rock and roll star, alright One guy and a lot of Indians, right? Right And two ducks
