歌曲歌詞
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
