I recall how it used to be

In my younger days

I built a wall all around my heart

To keep the pain away

I built it tall and I built it wide

I left no room for doubt

Your love still found its way inside

And couldn't get back out



I'm breaking down the barriers

Making up my mind

I'm breaking down the barriers of time

I'm taking down the barriers

And loving what I find

I'm breaking down the barriers that lie

Between your love and mine



I guess you know you were not the first

You may not be the last

But you have shown me a better way

And now I'm learning fast

You gotta go where the feeling flows

I take it while it's hot

You gotta give if you wanna get

And I want all you got
