A GREAT DAY FOR FREEDOM

PINK FLOYD

Key:

On the day the wal l came down, th ey threw the lock s on to the ground

And with glasses high we raised a cry for f reedom had arrived

And on the day the wall came down

The ship of fools had finally run aground.

Promises lit up the night like paper doves in flight.

I dream ed you had left my s ide. No warmth not even p ride r emained--

And even though you n eeded me , it was clear that I coul d not

do a thi ng for you.

Now life devalues day by day

As friends and neighbours turn away.

And there's a change that even with regret can not be undone.

Now frontiers shift like desert sands,

as nations wash their bloodied hands

Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grey.

I woke to the sound of drums.

The music played, the morning sun streamed in.

I turned and I looked at you,

and all but the bitter residue slipped away,

slipped away.

(Instrumental)
