"White Wall" lyrics

"White Wall"

Springtime of your years, the young thoughts of your dreams
While you live on the wind how lovely it all seems
With moments yet unshared and wishes incomplete
The stars above your head, the world beneath your feet
White wall seems tall
Too small a problem to get hung on
Suddenly the nights begin to seem so long
There's no one there to touch and things start going wrong
You finally realize you've never loved at all
And everywhere you look you see the white wall

White wall

Your father's been too far, your mother's been too near
And now you're on your own withdrawing in your fear
Through long and sleepless nights the fox is running free
You long to be with him where the sky meets the sea
You climb and then you fall and then you try again
You curse yourself aloud for living so within
And tumble to the ground, your eyes are filled with tears
Imprisoned there you lay in the autumn of your years
White wall seems tall
Too small a problem to get hung on

White, white wall
White, white wall
White wall
White wall
White wall
White wall
White wall
White wall
White wall
White wall
White wall
White wall

Wow
