Spandau Ballet

Spandau Ballet is an English band formed in London in the late 1970s. Initially inspired by, and an integral part of, the New Romantic movement, they were one of the most successful bands of the 1980s, achieving ten Top Ten singles and four Top Ten albums in the UK between 1980 and 1990. The band split acrimoniously in 1990, but reunited in 2009. more »

Mother doesn't know where love has gone                 
She says it must be youth               
That keeps us feeeling strong           
See it in her face, that's turned to ice                
And when she smiles she shows           
The lines of sacrifice          
And now I know what they're saying              
When the sun begins to fade             
And we made our love on wasteland               
And through the barricades              
Father made my history          
He fought for what he thought           
Would set us somehow free               
He tought me what to say in school              
I learned off by heart          
But now that's torn in two              
And now I know what they're saying
In the music of the parade              
We made our love on wasteland           
And through the barricades      
Born on different sides of life         
We feel the same                
And feel all of this strife             
So come to me when I'm asleep           
We'll cross the line            
And dance upon the street               
And now I know what they're saying              
When the drums begin to fade            
We made our love on wasteland           
And through the barricades      
Oh, turn around and I'll be there
There's a scar through my heart
But I'll bare it again  
I thought  we were the human race               
But we were just another border-line-case               
And the stars reach down and tell us            
That there's always one escape          
I don't know where love has gone                
And in this trouble land                
Desperation keep us strong              
Fridays child is full of soul           
With nothing left to lose               
There's everything to go                        
And now I know what they're are saying
It's a terrible beauty we've made
So we make our love on  wasteland 
And through the barricades
Now I know what they're are saying
as hearts go to their graves
we made our love on  wasteland 
And through the barricades.
