Wade Bowen - Before These Walls Were Blue lyrics

rate me

The world says you're ready when you're eighteen

And I was no exception to the rule.

You could have tried my hand and prove to them that I was a man

Not an ounce of fear in anything I do.

Yeah, I thought I knew it all

Turns out I didn't have a clue

Before these walls were blue.

I remember sitting there in that old rock

Playing, trying to get you back asleep

When I found myself laughing at you laughing

Wishing a hundred times that I could cheat.

Yeah, I thought that I knew love

Turns out I didn't have a clue

Before these walls, before these walls were blue.

I believe in Heaven, I believe in magic,

I believe in a life besides these walls

Now I believe

In dinosaurs, in toys, trains and baseball

What you're gonna be for Halloween

I will be the villain and you will be the hero

And save the day the way that you saved me.

Yeah, I thought I knew myself,

Turns out I didn't have a clue

Before these walls, before these walls

Before these walls were blue.
