# Mother doesn't know where love's gone,
# she says it must be youth that keeps us feeling strong.
# 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 fought for what he thought
# would set us somehow free.
# He taught me what to say in school,
# I learned it off by heart
# but now that's torn in two.
# 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 we 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 bare 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,
# that there's only 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.
# And now I know what they're saying,
# it's a terrible beauty we've made.
# So we make our love on wasteland,
# and through the barricades.
# 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. #
