Judy Collins - Walls Lyrics






We are not forgotten.
Listen to my heart, look into my eyes.
I have seen the stars falling from the skies.
Listen to my fears, yours will lift and fly.
Let me show you where, I have touched the air.
Stories from the past, each as true as mine.
We can speak at last through the sands of time.

We are not forgotten anymore.

These are things I know, trampled fields of snow
Sheets of falling rain, hope that concurs pain.
Souls that call again in my memory.
Through the veils of light falling on the sea.
Letters wrapped in love, lips pressed in my dreams.
Holy thoughts and brave, men who laugh and weep

We are not forgotten anymore.

I am the face on the wall,
Spirit of hope ever rising
I am the prayer in your heart for peace.

Nothing can protects us like a wall.
From our foes and our fears.
Nothing can be broken like a wall.
With our hopes and our tears

We learned all too well, hard as you may try.
There are days you win, there are days you die.
Having seen the war, we can speak of peace.
How we prayed all night for the dawn's release.
Did we all come home, did we turn the page?
There are walls of joy, there are walls of rage.
Walls at which you weep, walls onwhich you dance
Walls made of regret, walls you made by chance.
Walls that break you heart, walls through which you can see.
Walls made in your mind, walls that set you free.

We are not forgotten anymore.

I am the face on the wall,
Spirit of hope ever rising
I am the prayer in your heart for peace.

    Though they say They are not Forgotten anymore The Crew of the EC121 that was shot down over the sea of Japan by 2 North Korean migs April 15 1969 are still not Remembered because they don't fit into the Korean War or Vietnam War - they fit into a group of Cold War intelligence collectors - lots of them lost, but hard to group.

    This memorial will be finished if congress passes HR 1475 in the House and SB 1982 in the Senate to erect a "Wall of Remembrance" with the names of those who sacrificed.  Contact your reps to co-sponsor these bills.  The vets deserve it!

    This is a beautiful and haunting memorial!  Thank you, Mr. Nelson, and Ms. Collins for paying tribute to the brave men and women who fought in this war.  You are indeed not forgotten.  YOU ARE HEROS!

    wonderful-- in memory of those who took the bullet for us-- a friend of my dad's who never came back home in WWII.  In honor of those who came back with lifelong scars.
