[Chorus]
There's a wall in Washington
And it's made of cold black granite
They say 60,000 names are etched there in it
In that wall in Washington
[Verse]
A father, he travelled from far away
To walk the path till he finds that name
And he reaches his hand up and traces each letter
The tears, they fall as his memories gather
For the boy who filled his heart with pride
Is now but a name that's been etched in the side
Of this wall in Washington
[Chorus]
There's a wall in Washington
[Verse]
A mother, she travelled from far away
To walk the path until she finds that name
She reaches her hand up and traces each letter
The tears, they fall as her memories gather
She feels the baby at her breast
But her heart, it breaks because all that is left
Is this wall in Washington
There's a wall in Washington
And it's made of cold black granite
They say 60,000 names are etched there in it
In that wall in Washington
[Verse]
A father, he travelled from far away
To walk the path till he finds that name
And he reaches his hand up and traces each letter
The tears, they fall as his memories gather
For the boy who filled his heart with pride
Is now but a name that's been etched in the side
Of this wall in Washington
[Chorus]
There's a wall in Washington
[Verse]
A mother, she travelled from far away
To walk the path until she finds that name
She reaches her hand up and traces each letter
The tears, they fall as her memories gather
She feels the baby at her breast
But her heart, it breaks because all that is left
Is this wall in Washington
