The Great Divide

by Jay Buchanan

Lyrics
Staring at the fruit hanging in the tree
If itβ€²s the only one left, is it for you or for me?
How do we change this old pattern that we're in?
Itβ€²s a path that leads to no place, like a ladder to the wind

Lately, I've been dreaming that you walk with me
Straight into the dawn
Better than we used to be, to where we both belong
And when the last sad song has been sung

I sing across the great divide
To you on the left, to you on the right
I sing across the great divide

To you on the left, to you on the right, ooh-ooh

You know fear takes a toll on a rational mind
Dig a hole to fill a hole now, an eye for an eye will leave you blind
How do we grow when we devour the sun?
Push a child into the shadow, saying there's only room for one

Lately, Iβ€²ve been dreaming that you walk with me
Straight into the dawn
Better than we used to be, to where we both belong
And when the last sad song has been sung

I sing across the great divide
To you on the left, to you on the right

I sing across the great divide
To you on the left, to you on the right, right, right

Mm-mm, yeah
Oh-oh, mm
Mm, mm
Mm, yeah
Mm, mm-mm
Yeah, oh-oh
