Jericho

Verse 1:

You were a dreamer of dreams walking along these shores.
Dream if you will but remember there are iron laws.
However much your seem to solve this mystery, 
No one ignores the iron vice of history. 
All those come before dreamed to escape,
Trying to fly over the balustrades. 

Chorus:

Standing at the gates. 
O this is Jericho!
And the walls reach up to the stars. 
Outside we were singing. 
Such a strange, strange place. 
We are the prisoners of the prisoners we have taken.

~ Johnny Clegg, Cruel, Crazy, Beautiful World
