You're saying I've got, got a lot, a lot of nerve

To say that we could, we could be friends

YOu're thinking I'm just another one telling lies

You don't want to be fooled, fooled again

And you always go your way

And I always go mine

Maybe one day we'll come together

Across the great divide

I heard somebody calling you a bad name

But I was speechless, didn't say anything to him

Next time I swear, it'll be different

I promise not to be silent again

And you always go your way

And I always go mine

Maybe one day we'll come together

Across the great divide

And I always cross to the other side

But I go back every time

Maybe one day we'll come together

Across the great divide

I saw a bombed aisle, heard a gunshot ring

Saw two matchsticks burn, felt the bedsheets sting

Ugly words on a wall, and a robe in flames

Then I saw a little boy smile, when the clouds did move away

And you always go your way

And I always go mine

Maybe one day we'll come together

Across the great divide
