Mother doesn't know where love has 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 are saying   As our sun begins to fade   And we made our love on wasteland   And through the barricades      Father made my history   And fought for what he thought   Would set us somehow free   They taught me what to say in school   I learned it off by heart   But now that?s torn in two      And now I know what they are saying   In the music of the parade   And we made our love on wasteland   And through the barricades      Born on different sides of life   But we feel the same   And feel all of this strife   So come to me when I'm asleep   And we'll cross the line   And dance upon the streets      And now I know what they are 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 is a scar right to 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 is always one escape      I don't know where love has gone   And in this trouble land   Desperation keeps us strong   Fridays child is full of soul   With nothing left to loose   There's everything to go      And now I know what they're are saying   It's a terrible beauty we've made   So we make our love on wasteland   And through the barricades      And now I know what they are saying   As our hearts go to their graves   So we made our love on wasteland   And through the barricades
