If liberty was a little girl
Watching all the flags unfurl
Standing at the big parade
How would she like us now?
We balance the power
>From hour to hour
Giant guns rage
It's such a long walk home
It's such a long walk home
It's such a long walk home
>From Vietnam to old Beirut
If we are searching for the truth
Why do we feel that double-edged blade
Cutting through our hand
America, America
Where have we gone?
It's such a long walk home
It's such a long walk home
It's such a long walk home
With balance of power
>From hour to hour
Giant guns rage
It's such a long walk home
It's such a long walk home
It's such a long walk home |
