You give her your kiss and your attention

And she gives your her cold cold shoulder

Good times are few, too few to mention

Still your plans are just to hold her



And I don't understand your wanting her

When she'll never appreciate

It's such a compliment you hunting her

I guess this situation must be my fate



Cause I've been downtown up against the wall

And I'm watching you walk around up against the wall

And the weatherman told me soon is gonna fall

Hearts and all up against the wall



You penciled in her name and number

That should make it easier to forget

She doesn't call and then you wonder

If your eraser leaves no regret



But can she look you in the eye

When she finally lets you in

Satisfaction is a white lie

You can't quit and I can't win



Cause I've been downtown up against the wall

Watching you walk around up against the wall

And the weatherman told me soon is gonna fall

Hearts and all up against the wall



It's my heart and it's your heart and nevermind her heart

Raining down continually

Miles and miles of walls in this city

Won't you come closer, come closer to me



And I don't understand you wanting her

When she'll never appreciate

Oh it's such a compliment you hunting her

I guess this situation must be my fate



Cause I've been downtown up against the wall

Watching you walk around up against the wall

And the weatherman told me soon is gonna fall

Hearts and all

Up against the wall

It's gonna be my heart, your heart

Hearts and all
