"The Great Divide" lyrics

Luke Combs & Billy Strings Lyrics

"The Great Divide"

We're striking matches on the TV
Setting fires on our phones
Bearing crosses we believe in dying on
Tempers flare, the flame flies higher
As we soar closer towards the sun
But I like to think too much damage ain't been done

We're all so far, so far apart now
It's as deep as it is wide
We're about to fall apart now
If we can't reach the other side
We gotta find a way across the great divide

Sometimes it seems that our convictions
Side of the fence that we stand on
Makes us all too damn different to get along
But I've seen strangers love each other
Like a mother does her son
What we see ain't only all that's going on

We're all so far, so far apart now
It's as deep as it is wide
We're about to fall apart now
If we can't reach the other side
We gotta find a way across the great divide

We're all so far, so far apart now
It's as deep as it is wide
We're about to fall apart now
If we can't reach the other side
We gotta find a way across the great divide
The great divide
