Lyrics
[verse]
I saw you through a border I could never cross
A face behind the glass, a signal lost
They said your name was Sonya, said it soft and low
I traced your shadow on a screen of falling snow
[verse]
The wires hum between us like a secret song
I don't know your language but I hum along
Two different worlds are watching the same rain
Wondering if we'll ever meet again
[chorus]
Sonya, if the wall could learn to bend
Sonya, I would cross it for a friend
No flag, no line upon a map could keep us far apart
If only they could see the way you moved my heart
[verse]
I keep a photograph you never even took
A memory I built from just a look
Some nights I swear I hear you call my name
Through static, through the distance, through the same old rain
[chorus]
Sonya, if the wall could learn to bend
Sonya, I would cross it for a friend
No flag, no line upon a map could keep us far apart
If only they could see the way you moved my heart
[bridge]
One day the wires will fall, the borders learn to fade
And we'll be standing where the maps were made
Until that day I'll carry you in every word I sing
[chorus]
Sonya, if the wall could learn to bend
Sonya, I would cross it for a friend
No flag, no line upon a map could keep us far apart
If only they could see the way you moved my heart
