Lyrics
There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road while you're travelling with me
Hey now, hey now, don't dream, it's over
Hey now (hey now), when the world comes in
(They come) they come to build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me, suspicion, but there's no proof
In the paper today, tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the TV page
Hey now, hey now, don't dream, it's over
Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in
Well, they come, they come to build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead, barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and release
Hey now, hey now, don't dream, it's over
Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in
Well, they come, they come to build a wall between us
We know they won't win
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Hey now
Come on
Hey now, hey now (don't dream, it's over)
(Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in)
They come (they come to build a wall between us)
We know they won't win
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ah
See, they shall
Don't come before time
Don't ever let them win, yeah
Hey now, hey now
