Shawn Colvin - If These Walls Could Speak lyrics

If these old walls, if these old walls could speak What a tale they have to tell, hard headed people raisin' hell A couple in love livin' week to week Rooms full of laughter, if these old walls could speak If these old halls, if hallowed halls could talk These would have a tale to tell, the sun goin' down and dinner bells And children playin' at hide and seek From floor to rafters, if these old walls could speak They would tell you that I'm sorry For bein' and cold and blind and weak They would tell you that it's only that I have a stubborn streak If these old walls could speak If these old fashion window panes had eyes I guess they would have seen it all Each little tear and silence step fall And every dream that we came to seek And followed after, if these old walls could speak They would tell you that I owe you More that I could ever pay Here's someone who really loves you Don't ever go away That's what these walls would say
