I saw an old friend yesterday
Guess we both had too much to say
Seems we've taken different sides
All caught up in politics and pride

If we can get beyond the blame
I know we'd see we're still the same
The distance between us will fade
There'll be no distance between us someday

In that distant land across the sea
They are people just like you and me
They just wanna see their children grow
And feel the same love we all know

When we get beyond all the hurt and blame
And realize we're all the same
The distance between us will fade
There'll be no distance between us someday

We can rise up toward each other
We can build a bridge brother to brother
Take the steps we need to take to get us to a better place
Where the distance between us fades away
There'll be no distance between us one of these days
One of these days
We can rise up towards each other
We can build a bridge brother to brother
Take the steps we need to take to get us to a better place
Where the distance between us fades away
There'll be no distance between us one of these days
One of the these days

We can rise up towards each other
We can build a bridge brother to brother
No distance between us one of these days
