Lyrics

[Verse 1]

My love, what did I do

To make you fall

So far from me?

[Verse 2]

And now I can't recall

The cause of the fall

Selective memory

[Verse 3]

Then you, you built a wall

A twenty-foot wall

So I couldn't see

[Verse 4]

But if I get off my knees

I might recall

I'm twenty feet tall

[Verse 5]

I'm twenty feet tall

I'm twenty feet tall

[Verse 6]

My love, what did I do

To make you fall

So far from me?

[Verse 7]

And now I can't recall

The cause of the fall

Selective memory

[Verse 8]

Then you, you built a wall

A twenty-foot wall

So I couldn't see

[Verse 9]

But if I get off my knees

I might recall

I'm twenty feet tall

[Verse 10]

I'm twenty feet tall

I'm twenty feet tall

[Verse 11]

I'm twenty feet tall

I'm twenty feet tall
