lyrics

There’s something inside me
Deep down inside me
That doesn’t love a wall
Doesn’t love a wall at all
I’ve got no use for them
But you just can’t ignore them
I just don’t love a wall
I don’t love a wall at all

Walls have many uses so they say
But all I see are walls getting in the way
Walls fall, walls fall, walls fall
Let’s bring down some walls today

We’re looking for places
Hide-away spaces
Where they’re not building walls
Not constructing them at all
But the biggest surprise is
In back of your eyes is
The biggest wall of all
That’s the wall that’s got to fall

Walls have many uses so they say
But all I see are walls getting in the way
Walls fall, walls fall, walls fall
Let’s bring down some walls today
