Too Many Walls

 Vaughn Welches, Jim Melko & Tony Kippins

 

I heard you cryin’ in the bedroom

I feel our lovin’ wearin’ thin

I can touch, but I can’t reach you

There’s no way in

You can tell me I’m the only one

A thousand times won’t make it true

I think I know what’s hiding me from you . . . there’s

 

Too many walls in our house

Too many wounds . . . that keep us apart

Too many walls in our house

Not enough room . . . for two broken hearts

We tried so hard to get beyond

The damage other . . . lovers have done

But there’s too many walls . . .

                 . . . too many walls in our house

 

Every inch that lies between us

Is about a mile for pride to crawl

This old house once big enough for dreams

Is ‘way too small

With the silence closing in on us

We’ve nothing left to say

And love just turns away . . . from

 

Repeat chorus

 

BRIDGE:

We’ve got walls of pain

And walls of pride   

Keeping both of us inside

 

Repeat chorus
