There's A Wall In Washington

There's a wall in Washington
and it's made of cold black granite
They say 60,000 names are etched there in it
in that wall in Washington

A father, he traveled from far away
to walk the path 'til he finds that name
He reaches his hand up and traces each letter
The tears they fall as his memories gather
for the boy who filled his heart with pride
is now but a name that's been etched
in the side of this wall in Washington

A mother she traveled from far away
to walk the path 'til she finds that name
She reaches her hand up and traces each letter
The tears they fall as her memories gather
She feels the baby at her breast
but her heart it breaks because all that is left
is this wall in Washington

A boy, he traveled from far away
to walk the path 'til he finds that name
He reaches his hand up and traces each letter
He stares at the name of his unknown father
His heart is young and it's filled with pain
in anger he cries out

"Who is to blame for this wall in Washington
that's made of cold black granite?
Why is my father's name etched here in it
in this wall in Washington?"

Mirror lyrics:

in this wall in Washington?"
Why is my father's name etched here in it
that's made of cold black granite?
"Who is to blame for this wall in Washington

in anger he cries out
His heart is young and it's filled with pain
He stares at the name of his unknown father
He reaches his hand up and traces each letter
to walk the path 'til he finds that name
A boy, he traveled from far away

is this wall in Washington
but her heart it breaks because all that is left
She feels the baby at her breast
The tears they fall as her memories gather
She reaches her hand up and traces each letter
to walk the path 'til she finds that name
A mother she traveled from far away

in the side of this wall in Washington
is now but a name that's been etched
for the boy who filled his heart with pride
The tears they fall as his memories gather
He reaches his hand up and traces each letter
to walk the path 'til he finds that name
A father, he traveled from far away

in that wall in Washington
They say 60,000 names are etched there in it
and it's made of cold black granite
There's a wall in Washington
