Lyrics

WALLs
Music and Lyrics by Beverly Graham

The days are much longer
When you are lonely
Nights last forever
When you're afraid
And time marches stalwartly
To the grave of uncertainty
And we gaze back in horror at all the games we've played

And love flies us back to the days of our youth
When we knew behind the key
Lied the answer and the truth
And love will sustain us
Love will provide
If we're brave enough to climb up from
The walls in which we hide

When I was a child
I saw joy in everything
It was enough to laugh and love
To give the world the songs I sing
But now I walk uncertainly
On the path that life has given me
And I gaze back with agony
At the folly pride does bring

Refrain

Now I view the world
With a set of different eyes
Take away the pain, the anger
The hunger and the lies
I lift my voice
I give my heart
Delivered into the hand
Of a power far greater
Than
Even I can understand

And love flies us back to the days
Of our youth
When we knew behind the key
lied the answer and the truth
and Love will sustain me
Love will provide
If I am brave enough to climb up from the walls in which I hide

refrain
