The ocean is wide, the tides run deep   How did you build this wall    What you kept inside was once part of us   For so long   But rocks, they tumble down and grind to sand   Did you forget as you built your wall   And what you keep inside is a part of us   Still holding on   The ocean is wide, the tides run deep   And your wall has turend to sand   And what you kept inside has washed up on shore   After so long    It's been so long
