I can feel your heartbeat

Across the great divide.

I know sometimes you're lonely.

I know how hard you try.

And I know why.

The great divide between us

we put it up between us

I wonder if we ever had a chance.

We need too much forgiving

We're both too busy living

After all, I thank you for that dance.

Oh we built our wall

One brick at a time.

Words spit out in anger

Destroyed the ties that bind.

We were so blind.

The great divide between us

we put it up between us

I wonder if we ever had a chance.

We need too much forgiving

We're both too busy living

After all, I thank you for that dance.
