Lyrics

I Built a wall around my heart
I ain't ever givin' love another chance to start
No one's gettin' in again I'm finally gettin' smart
I built a wall around my heart

Around my heart I built a wall
Took me all last summer, and well on into fall
I have built it wide and I have built it tall
Around my heart, I buillt a wall

Hear another lie, lay another brick
Two more stories got a shovel and a pick
Mixed the mortar with lots of tears
Oh man this wall's gonna last for years
Around my heart

Ibuilt a wall
You can bring the trumpets of Jericho
But it ain't gonna fall
I ain't takin' one more chance to have it torn apart
And so I built a wall around
It ain't ever comin' down
I have built around my heart
