Mother doesn't know where love has gone
She says it must be youth
that keeps us feeling strong
I see it in her face that's turned to ice
And when she smiles she shows the lines of sacrifice
And now I know what they're saying
as our sun begins to fade
And we made our love on wasteland
and through the barricades
Father made my history
He thought for what he thought
would set us somehow free
They taught me what to say in school
I learned it off my heart but now that's torn in two
And now I know what they're saying
in the music of the parade
And we made our love on wasteland
and through the barricades
Born on different sides of life
We feel the same and feel all of this strife
So come to me when I'm asleep
We'll cross the lines and dance upon the streets
And now I know what they're saying
as the drums begin to fade
And we made our love on
wasteland and through the barricades
Oh turn around and I'll be there
There's a scar right through my heart
but I'll bear it again
Oh I thought we were the human race
But we were just another borderline case
And the stars reach down
and tell us there's always one escape
I don't know where love has gone
And in this troubled land desperation keeps us strong
Fridays child is full of soul
With nothing left to lose there's everything to go
And now I know what they're saying
it's a terrible beat we made
And we made our love on wasteland
and through the barricades
And now I know what they're saying
as our hearts go to their graves
And we made our love on wasteland
and through the barricades
