Lyrics
Mother doesn't know where love has gone
She said it must be youth that keeps us feeling strong
I see it in her face that turns to ice
When she smiles she shows the lines of sacrifice
Now I know what they're saying as the sun begins to fade
We made our love on wasteland through the barricades
Father made my history
He fought for what he thought would somehow set us all free
He taught me what to say in school
I learned it off by heart and now that's torn in two
Now I know what they're saying in the music of the parade
We made our love on wasteland through the barricades
Born on different sides of life
Oh, we feel the same and then we feel all of the strife
So come to me when I'm asleep
Oh, then we'll cross those lines and dance upon the streets
Now I know what they're saying as the drums begin to fade
We made our love on wasteland through the barricades
Oh, turn around and I'll be there
There's a scar right through my heart and I'll bare it again
We 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, oh
I don't know where love has gone
And in this troubled land desperation keeps us strong
Friday's child is full of soul
With nothing left to lose there's everything to go
Now I know what they're saying
It's a terrible beauty that we've made
We made our love on wasteland through the barricades
Now I know what they're saying
As our hearts go to their graves
We made our love on wastelands
Oh, and through the barricades
