Nanci Griffith - If These Old Walls Could Speak lyrics

If these old walls, if these old walls could speak Of things that they remember well Stories and faces dearly held A couple in love living week to week Rooms full of laughter If these walls could speak If these old halls, hallowed halls could talk These would have a tale to tell Of sun going down and dinner bell And children playing at hide and seek from floor to rafter If these halls could speak They would tell you that I'm sorry For being cold and blind and weak They would tell you that it's only That I have a stubborn streak If these walls could speak If these old fashioned window panes were eyes I guess they would have seen it all Each little tear and sigh and footfall And every dream that we came to seek or followed after If these walls could speak They would tell you that I owe you More than I could ever pay Here's someone who really loves you Don't ever go away That's what these walls would say They would tell you that I owe you More than I could ever pay Here's someone who really loves you Don't ever go away That's what these walls would say That's what these walls would say That's what these walls would say
