I'd be a sad man
She'd left me long ago
If she knew the things I did back then
No, they ain't said a word
Stood silent through it all
I'd be a lonely man
If these old walls could talk
This old house of ours
It's made of stone
But it's built on sand
And these four walls
They are my best friends
Been keepin' all my past
Locked deep inside
No one will ever know
All those things I did so long ago
I've been runnin', tryin' to hide from yesterday
But there's just no need
I know my secret's safe
If these old walls could talk
I'd be a sad man
She'd left me long ago
If she knew the things I did back then
No, they ain't said a word
Stood silent through it all
I'd be a lonely man
If these old walls could talk
They stood every storm
Those long, cold winter nights
They kept us warm
Holdin' back the rain
Not even the winds of change
Could ever blow 'em down
Yeah, we're on solid ground
If these old walls could talk
Id be a sad man
She'd left me long ago
If she knew the things I did back then
And, no, they ain't said a word
Stood silent through it all
I'd be a lonely man
If these old walls could talk
They've stood the test of time
Never let me down
I've put it all behind me
They remind me
I'm on shaky ground
They won't let me forget
If these old walls could talk
Id be a sad man
She'd left me long ago
If she knew the things I did back then
No, they ain't said a word
Stood silent through it all
I'd be a lonely man
If these old walls could talk
Yeah, I'd be a lonely man
If these old walls could talk
I'd be a sad man
She'd left me long ago
If these old walls could talk I'd be a sad man She'd left me long ago If she knew the things I did back then No, they ain't said a word Stood silent through it all I'd be a lonely man If these old walls could talk This old house of ours It's made of stone But it's built on sand And these four walls They are my best friends Been keepin' all my past Locked deep inside No one will ever know All those things I did so long ago I've been runnin', tryin' to hide from yesterday But there's just no need I know my secret's safe If these old walls could talk I'd be a sad man She'd left me long ago If she knew the things I did back then No, they ain't said a word Stood silent through it all I'd be a lonely man If these old walls could talk They stood every storm Those long, cold winter nights They kept us warm Holdin' back the rain Not even the winds of change Could ever blow 'em down Yeah, we're on solid ground If these old walls could talk Id be a sad man She'd left me long ago If she knew the things I did back then And, no, they ain't said a word Stood silent through it all I'd be a lonely man If these old walls could talk They've stood the test of time Never let me down I've put it all behind me They remind me I'm on shaky ground They won't let me forget If these old walls could talk Id be a sad man She'd left me long ago If she knew the things I did back then No, they ain't said a word Stood silent through it all I'd be a lonely man If these old walls could talk Yeah, I'd be a lonely man If these old walls could talk I'd be a sad man She'd left me long ago Explain Request ×
