Sting and Police - Fortress Around Yur Heart слова песни
Under the ruins of a walled cityCrumbling towers in beams of yellow lightNo flags of truce, no cries of pityThe siege guns had been pounding through the nightIt took a day to build the cityWe walked through its streets in the afternoonAs I returned across the fields I`d knownI recognised the walls that I once madeI had to stop in my tracks for fearOf walking on the mines I`d laidAnd if I`ve built this fortress around your heartEncircled you in trenches and barbed wireThen let me build a bridgeFor I cannot fill the chasmAnd let me set the battlements on fireThen I went off to fight some battleThat I`d invented inside my headAway so long for years and yearsYou probably thought, or even wished that I was deadWhile the armies all are sleepingBeneath the tattered flag we`d madeI had to stop in my tracks for fearOf walking on the mines I`d laidAnd if I`ve built this fortress around your heartEncircled you in trenches and barbed wireThen let me build a bridgeFor I cannot fill the chasmAnd let me set the battlements on fireThis prison has now become your homeA sentence you seem prepared to payIt took a day to build the cityWe walked through its streets in the afternoonAs I returned across the lands I`d knownI recognised the fields where I`d once playedI had to stop in my tracks for fearOf walking on the mines I`d laidAnd if I`ve built this fortress around your heartEncircled you in trenches and barbed wireThen let me build a bridgeFor I cannot fill the chasmAnd let me set the battlements on fire
