A Great Day for Freedom (Live)

Pink Floyd
A Great Day For Freedom
On the day the wall came down
They threw the locks onto the ground
And with glasses high we raised a cry for freedom had arrived
On the day the wall came down
The Ship of Fools had finally run aground
Promises lit up the night like paper doves in flight
I dreamed you had left my side
No warmth not even pride remained
And even though you needed me
It was clear that I could not do a thing for you
Now life devalues day by day
As friends and neighbours turn away
And there's a change that  even with regret  cannot be undone
Now frontiers shift like desert sands
While nations wash their bloodied hands
Of loyalty  of history  in shades of gray
I woke to the sound of drums
The music played  the morning sun streamed in
I turned and I looked at you
And all but the bitted residue slipped away   slipped away

A Great Day For Freedom
