Walls, high and low
Thick and thin
They keep you out, they keep you in
Walls narrow and wide
Round the square with warning signs "Watch out", "Beware"
Brick by brick they built them but it seems to me
Brick by brick they built them where they shouldn't be
We should be building bridges to a better day
Where no walls would stand in the way
Walls here and there, everywhere
In every city, every town we would have that better day
If all the walls came tumbling down
Brick by brick at times they're of a different kind
Brick by brick they built around the heart and mind
Sometimes lasting longer than the walls that are made of stone
Keeping us apart and alone
These are walls that we don't see
But we built between the you and me
Made of broken dreams and wounded feelings that go on
Like walls we wish to go away
Could we have ourselves that better day
If we took the chance to simply say that we forgive
And then we forget they'd be gone
Oh walls here and there, everywhere
In every city, every town we would have that better day
If all the walls came tumbling down

Barbara Joan Streisand, conosciuta semplicemente come Barbra, è un'icona della musica e dello spettacolo americano. Nata a Brooklyn nel 1942, ha conquistato il mondo con la sua voce potente e versatile, capace di spaziare dal jazz al musical, passando per il pop e l'opera. La sua carriera, iniziata negli anni '60, è costellata da successi straordinari: album come "The Streisand Album" (1963) e "Funny Girl" (1968), film memorabili come "Funny Girl" (1968) e "A Star Is Born" (1976), per cui ha vinto un Oscar, e una lunga serie di premi prestigiosi, tra cui due Grammy Award. Oltre alla musica, Streisand si è affermata anche come attrice, regista e produttrice cinematografica, dimostrando un talento poliedrico che l'ha consacrata come una delle figure più influenti del XX secolo. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi ricordiamo "People", "Don't Rain on My Parade" e "Memory".
