Two brothers in 1961
On a road ninety miles too long
Someone don't want us together
But we just keep on walking cause we're one
I got a voice and you got a reason
For the glory we sing our broken song
Take a side and I'll take the other one
Two brothers under one nation
I wanna feel your love right now
Wanna see the night and feel the day
Ever try to touch somebody ninety miles away?
But it won't be the same again
No, it won't be the same again
Third brother, 1989
Got through it, opened up the line
Stand tall, I'll follow you this time
We're all just waiting on a sign
I wanna feel your love right now
Wanna see the night and feel the day
Ever try to touch somebody ninety miles away?
But it won't be the same again
No, it won't be the same again
I'll be with you until the end
But it won't be the same
We're broken, we're battered
We're torn up, and we're shattered
We turn back on each other
The moment that it mattered
The curtain is shaking
It's bending and it's breaking
And I'll be with you in the end
But it won't be the same again
Can't go back to the way it's been
I'll be with you until the end
But it won't be the same
Won't be the same again
On a road ninety miles too long
Someone don't want us together
But we just keep on walking cause we're one
For the glory we sing our broken song
Take a side and I'll take the other one
Two brothers under one nation
Wanna see the night and feel the day
Ever try to touch somebody ninety miles away?
No, it won't be the same again
Got through it, opened up the line
Stand tall, I'll follow you this time
We're all just waiting on a sign
Wanna see the night and feel the day
Ever try to touch somebody ninety miles away?
No, it won't be the same again
I'll be with you until the end
But it won't be the same
We're torn up, and we're shattered
We turn back on each other
The moment that it mattered
The curtain is shaking
It's bending and it's breaking
And I'll be with you in the end
Can't go back to the way it's been
I'll be with you until the end
But it won't be the same
Won't be the same again

Well, Isaac said this song is about the Berlin Wall, but I think of this song as a love song. Love doesn't necessarily mean "attraction between a boy and a girl". Love is present everywhere:
We're broken, we're battered We're torn up and we're shattered We turn back on each other The moment that it mattered The curtain is shaking It's bending and it's breaking And I'll be with you in the end (until the end)
My fav part
Wanna feel your love right now Wanna see the night and feel the day Ever try to touch somebody Ninety miles away
