If these walls could talk, would they tell you all
The things I've said while you were fast asleep, lying next to me?
Would they play like a memory, every night you stay up waiting
Just to fall asleep, lying next to me?
And it starts, with a whisper in the dark
Shapes and shadows fall apart
anything just to break this
but I can't bring myself to say it
Now I'm wide awake
My eyes are open watching as you fade away
Do you know that I'd give anything to be
The only one, the only one
The only one you're dreaming of
How do I stop these thoughts from racing around
A million miles in all directions
How do I make my heart stop beating
Long enough to hit the ground
When the sun hits your face
Hard enough, I'll watch you wake up
From a dream, lying next to me
And when you close your eyes
I hope your listening
Well if these walls come down, we'll burn them to the ground
We'll spread the ashes out, and listen to the sounds
I'll stare into the flames, whispering your name
Remembering the day, remembering the day
I saw you for the first time
If these walls could talk, would they tell you all
The things I've said while you were fast asleep, lying next to me
