Long Walk Home

If you see Liberty tell her I will

Buy her windows on the hill

Laud her flowers on the sill

Till they grow higher and higher.

If Liberty was a little girl

Watching all the flags unfurl

Standing at the big parade

How would she like us now?

We balance the power

From hour to hour

Giant guns rage

It's such a long walk home

It's such a long walk home

It's such a long walk home.

From Vietnam to old Beirut

If we are searching for the truth

Why do we feel that double-edged blade

Cutting through our hand.

America, America

Where have we gone?

It's such a long walk home

It's such a long walk home

It's such a long walk home.

We balance the power

From hour to hour

Giant guns rage

It's such a long walk home

It's such a long walk home

It's such a long walk home.
