The Great Divide

(album: Back In The Fire - 1989)

It's time for us to settle up and go our separate ways
No one takes the blame but we both have to pay
Everything that once was ours now is yours or mine
I guess we finally made it across the great divide

And it sure hurts like hell to see you walk away
And there's nothing I can do to make you want to stay
No one but you and I can know how hard we tried
There's no turning back, we've crossed the great divide

Now we're standing in the doorway of a house we made a home
And it seems so cold and empty now that all our love is gone
We take one last look together before we say goodbye
Since we finally made it across the great divide

And it sure hurts like hell to see you walk away
And there's nothing I can do to make you want to stay
No one but you and I can know how hard we tried
There's no turning back, we've crossed the great divide
There's just no turning back, we've crossed the great divide
