Walls

When I built these walls with bricks and stones I built them all around I built these walls a long time ago She ain′t gonna take 'em down No, she ain′t gonna break 'em down I built these walls with my two hands I laid every single part And behind these walls a coward stands An eagle and a broken heart An eagle and a broken heart Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, she comes around See if I don't get lost I won′t get found Oh-oh-oh.oh, and turn it ′round See if I don't go up I won′t come down I won't come down When I built these walls around my chest I built them thick and strong Oh, and she can try her very best But they′ve been here for too long For long ago there was a girl That stood there where she stands But she reached right in into my heart And broke it in her hands Oh, she broke it in her hands Oh-oh-oh-oh, and I suppose If there's no rain of clouds Nothing grows Oh-oh-oh, but this I know If I don′t get high I won't get low Oh-oh-oh, and I find her strange She wants to climb up But she could fall Oh-oh-oh, she said: I won't change And I live and die Behind these walls Behind these walls Behind these walls
