Lyrics

Heart is in motion, look around
At the everyday people in the everyday towns
Love is an ocean as deep as the sky
Gotta keep our arms open or we're never gonna fly
It's a tragedy, all the hate I see
Am I left to be a slave to history?
Love's our common ground, yeah, my skin is brown
Ain't no sweeter sound, walls are tumblin' down
I can't deny it overwhelms
That changin' your world means changin' yourself
You can't tell me that you've already tried
'Cause we're never gonna shine 'til we swallow our pride
It's a tragedy, all the hate I see
Am I left to be a slave to history?
Love's our common ground, yeah, my skin is brown
Ain't no sweeter sound, walls are tumblin' down
It's such a tragedy, all the hate I see
Am I left to be a slave to history?
Love's our common ground, yeah, my skin is brown
Ain't no sweeter sound, walls are tumblin' down
The questions in you are the questions in me
And I'm no closer to answers than you are to me
If we just believe, then we all can be free
Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na
