THE WALL CAME TUMBLING DOWN
© Lyrics Marion Lloyd-Langton
© Music Huw Lloyd-Langton
REGISTERED WITH PRS/MCPS AWAITING TUNE CODE
Recorded on LLG’s “River Run” LP
Walking into paths of freedom
With no big brother watching
Why did it take so very long
For the wall to come tumbling down
How could it last such a long time, too many dues to be paid
How could it last such a long time, too many years have gone by
(repeat)
Why did we still turn a blind eye
As the wall grew higher and higher
No one stopped the power growing
As a land became a prison camp
Was it fear of consequences
Or that we simply did not care
How could this ever happen. ,
With the whole world looking on
How could it last such a long time, too many dues to be paid
How could it last such a long time, too many years to wait
(repeat)
How many people buried sons
Before the wall came tumbling down?
Who'll pay the price of freedom?
Can it ever be a united kingdom again?
Will there be a new vision?
A future without a prison
Why did it take so very long?
For the wall to come tumbling down?
How could it last such a long time, too many dues to be paid
How could it last such a long time, too many years to wait
(repeat)
