Name That Tune #7!

"We have liberty together.
We would have liberty apart.
I try to express my emotions in words, but it's like a flood pouring into an inadequate vessel.
A military engagement looms - a considerable number of military engagements result in defeats, but
the highway continues always if we're on it together.

There there, there there. Don't imagine this is the end.
There there, there there. When life and people interfere,
they interfere for the purpose of keeping us apart
You're certain they'll fail in that!

My car is all fucked up. The things I own, cause me misgivings.
You ignore the news coverage of violence and loss,
turning to the entertainment section instead to see what's on telly

There there, there there. Don't imagine this is the end.
There there, there there. When life and people interfere,
they interfere for the purpose of keeping us apart
You're certain they'll fail in that!

With a steady rhythm, I'm out on a walk - measuring how far until I reach you.
The sun's near the horizon, so that the world's shadow falls just over your house,
Freedom is starting to feel familiar.

But there there, there there. Don't imagine this is the end.
There there, there there. When life and people interfere
they interfere for the purpose of keeping us apart
You know they will fail in this.

You must make them fail in this, always."
