Names On A Wall Lyrics
Oh, it’s a cold
Cold stone wall
One hand
One face against the wall
I watch the people and they’re
Each weighing their private losses
And the cold sweet morning air
Surrounds a crop of blank white crosses
I’m reading
I’m not believing
They’re all just names on a wall
They were once living hey were
Once breathing now
They’re all just names
Names on a wall
Oh, I press my ear against the wall
I hear a helicopter, a bomb explode
I hear the echoes of a thousand souls
And then one young face
He says to me
Please remember me
I want to set him free
But all I see are
Blank white crosses stretched out to infinity
Chorus
Hey Johnny
Can you hear your momma call?
Hey Johnny
She leaves the light on in the hal
Chorus
Cold stone wall
One hand
One face against the wall
I watch the people and they’re
Each weighing their private losses
And the cold sweet morning air
Surrounds a crop of blank white crosses
I’m not believing
They’re all just names on a wall
They were once living hey were
Once breathing now
They’re all just names
Names on a wall
I hear a helicopter, a bomb explode
I hear the echoes of a thousand souls
And then one young face
He says to me
Please remember me
I want to set him free
But all I see are
Blank white crosses stretched out to infinity
Can you hear your momma call?
Hey Johnny
She leaves the light on in the hal
