Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There are walls made of paper and walls made of stone
Some that are made out of livin' alone
I built a wall the no one could break down
Locked up my heart where it couldn't be found
[Verse 2]
You saw past my shackles and let love unfold
Showed me the truth from the lies I'd been told
My heart was a prisoner like no heart at all
Till your love reached higher than the wall
[Verse 3]
Higher than the wall, a thousand feet tall
High above the darkness where the blue shadows fall
Yeah, your love reached higher where it's better and brighter
Your love reached higher than the wall (Wall, wall)
Yeah, your love reached higher than the wall
[Verse 4]
Now I'm wearin' freedom instead of those chains
Empty reminders don't cause me no pain
It's all gone away like the leaves in the fall
'Cause your love reached higher than the wall
[Verse 5]
Higher than the wall, a thousand feet tall
High above the darkness where the blue shadows fall
Yeah, your love reached higher where it's better and brighter
Yeah, your love reached higher than the wall (Wall, wall)
Your love reached higher than the wall
Hey, hey
