Innocence Mission - Black Sheep Wall lyrics

This is how I love you: I wish for a shade I can pull I feel so afraid of watching you grow up This love hurts to much And I try and build a wall So I don't have to see you fall And I pray Go away from my thoughts! Why do you keep coming back Over Black Sheep Wall? Oh, I'd love to hold you close But I play it cool And keep my thoughts in a jar Marked "dangerous" And everyone says, "Never fear - All boys his age experiment with their lives" But my eyes want to close you out I'll close you out Why do you keep coming back Over Black Sheep Wall? Brother Black Sheep, love is strong There's a shepherd out in every storm And he's not afraid of a little rain Why am I? Why do I keep building up This Black Sheep Wall? Oh, I love you so! Do you really know how much How deep? Black Sheep This is how I love you: With closed eyes With turned back With distance
