Breakin' Down The Walls
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Talk is cheap, but it can't pay
For all the hurt you threw my way
Oh, no - Oh, no
Love is blind but I can see
You're trying to make a fool of me
I know - I know
Sometimes I feel just like I'm running on ice
I might slip and slide girl
But you won't hurt me twice, oh no
refrain:
No matter what you say
You'll never stop me
Breaking down the walls around your heart
No matter what you do
You just can't stop me
Breaking down the walls around your heart
Love is passion, love is pain
The heat is on, we're all insane
I know, I know
Life is bitter, life is sweet
You just can't ever admit defeat
Oh, no - oh, no
Sometimes it feels like we've been fighting too long
It can't be right to make me feel so wrong - oh, no
refrain
Did you ever feel like superman
got the world in your hands
But you never can
Seem to break down the walls
Did you ever feel like a drowning man
Got your life in your hands
But you never can
Seem to break down the walls
Sometimes it feels just like I'm running on ice
I might slip and slide girl
But you won't hurt me twice - oh, no
refrain
