Watch Barclay James Harvest Berlin video on DTube
Berlin - A Concert For The People is the recording of a 1980 concert in Berlin by Barclay James Harvest. The free-concert was performed right in front of the historical Reichstag. Pictures taken in 1981. I arrived at the wall, where - just a bit earlier - somebody successfully fled from East Germany to West-Berlin.
Came to your border
Looking back into the night
Falling down on the city lights far away
Tell me the answer
Who knows the wrong from the right?
Years may come and years they go
You've seen your bridges burning
And the wheels of time keep turning
Like a ship in the night
You passed along the highways of my life
And now my mind you're always in
And the ten-thirty flight will soon be headed my way
As she sails across the skyway of Berlin
Oh, and to think of all the changes you have seen
Oh, and reflect upon the way it might have been
Like a ship in the night
You passed along the highways of my life
And now my mind you're always in
And the ten-thirty flight will soon be headed my way
As she sails across the skyway of Berlin
