Within These Walls
Within these walls
lovers whispered promises
Within these walls
laughter rang out loud
Within these walls
tender words were commonplace
Love was safe in your embrace
and you were mine alone
Within these walls
I still hear the music playing.
Within these walls
shadows dance alone
I look all around and
everywhere I see your face
Every corner of this empty space
holds a memory of you.
Your eyes brought color into my world
Your sigh breathed life in to my soul
Your touch brought my
body to it’s senses
And loving you somehow
made me whole
Within these walls,
I strain to hear your footsteps
Within these walls,
your absence screams out loud
It’s hared to let go and
yet I know you’d understand
I’m just doing all I can
to get by without you.
Your eyes brought color into my world
Your sigh breathed life in to my soul
Your touch brought my
body to it’s senses
And loving you somehow
made me whole
Ah you made me whole
In years to come
whenever I think of this place
I’ll feel the warmth of your embrace
and smile for all we shared
Within these walls,
within these walls.
