Shame

Everywhere I go I see our shame
Everywhere I go all I can see is pain
I see it on the pavements
It's lying in the street
I see it on the faces of the people I don't meet

Everywhere I go I hear the sound
Crying in my head it just goes round and round
I hear it on the airwaves
It's coming down the wire
It's starting to consume us like a fire

But I'm only dreaming
As you can see
I don't expect that you should follow me
The road is lonely
I don't complain
It's such a shame

Everywhere I go I feel the love
Washing over me
I just can't get enough
I hear it in the music
That's coming down through me
I know there's love between us if we only set it free
And everywhere I go I feel the joy
Hold it in your heart
Don't let it be destroyed

'Cause all we need is freedom
All we ask is peace
All we ask is no one on their knees

But I'm only dreaming
As you can see
I don't expect that you should follow me
The road is lonely
I don't complain
But it's such a shame

'Cause all we need is freedom
All we ask is peace
And all we ask is no one on their knees

But I'm only dreaming
As you can see
I don't expect that you should follow me
The road is lonely
I don't complain
But it's such a shame
It's such a shame

The road is lonely
I don't complain
But it's such a shame

It's such a shame
I'm only dreaming
I'm only dreaming
It's such a shame
