[00:36.900] |
He was there the night the wall came down. |
[00:42.990] |
He lost her in the endless crowd, |
[00:49.590] |
in the shadow of St. Stephen's cross. |
[00:57.500] |
He sent cries aloft for his fellow man, |
[01:03.910] |
his fingers slipping from her hand, |
[01:09.640] |
the rain clouds prowling overhead. |
[01:17.310] |
|
[01:33.610] |
She was there the night the wall came down. |
[01:39.640] |
She faded into that newborn crowd |
[01:46.060] |
like a warning of what could be lost. |
[01:53.790] |
Through the perforated night she ran, |
[02:00.630] |
her fingers slipping from his hand, |
[02:06.720] |
and she breathed in freedom |
[02:10.050] |
before daylight tread. |
[02:16.440] |
|
[02:57.550] |
They were there the night the wall was drowned |
[03:03.100] |
in the surging of that tidal crowd: |
[03:09.120] |
an old world made new |
[03:13.030] |
on the same holy ground. |
[03:18.130] |
|
[03:19.020] |
She found him standing, looking lost |
[03:23.520] |
in the shadow of St. Stephen's cross, |
[03:28.920] |
and he closed his eyes and heard no sound |
[03:37.550] |
but her breathing warm against his mouth. |
[03:45.390] |
