Текст пісні
The moon sinks low
In the southern sky
On the open plains
Where the river runs dry
Well his feet are bare
Bare and dusty brown
And a hot wind blows
Over sacred ground
And a new day breaks
On the mountain side
Reaching high, reaching out
Over the great divide
It's a long, long road
Stretching out ahead
Step by step, step by step
Over the great divide
On a dead-end street
In a border town
Where the stray dog sleeps
In the midday sun
Now the headline news
Is old and worn
Pages stained with blood and rain
And cheap red wine
And his skin is black
The last of his tribe
And he turns his back, turns his back
On the great divide
And a new day breaks
On the mountain side
Reaching high, reaching out
Over the great divide
Solid rock and burning sand
Weathered by the hand of time
Standing high above the storm
Cutting deep against the grain
Days have come and gone
Leaving all their scars behind
Where the hills begin to climb
There's a legend carved in stone
And a new day breaks
On the mountain side
Reaching high, reaching out
Over the great divide
It's a long, long road
Stretching out ahead
Step by step, step by step
Over the great divide
And his skin is black
The last of his tribe
And he turns his back, turns his back
On the great divide
It's a long, long road
That leads him home again
Step by step, step by step
Over the great divide
Over the great divide
The great divide
Step by step, step by step
Over the great divide
