"Black Sheep Wall" lyrics
"Black Sheep Wall"
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 too much
And I try to 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?
Why do you keep coming back?
Why do you keep coming back over Black Sheep Wall?
Oh, I'd love to hold you close
But I play it cool
Keep my thoughts in a jar
Marked 'Dangerous'
And everyone says, "Never fear
All boys his age experiment with their lives"
My eyes want to close you out
I'll close you out
Why do you keep coming back?
Why do you keep coming back?
Why do you keep coming back
Over Black Sheep Wall?
Why do you keep coming back?
Why do you keep coming back?
Why do you keep coming back
Over Black Sheep Wall?
Brother Black Sheep, love is strong
There's a shepherd out in every storm
He's not afraid of the little rain
Why am I?
Why do I keep building up?
Why do I keep building up?
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
This is how I love you
This is how I love you
This is how I love you
My Black Sheep
This is how I love you
With closed eyes
This is how I love you
With turned back
This is how I love you
With distance
And I love you
This is how I love you
This is how I love you
With closed eyes
This is how I love you
With turned back
This is how I love you
With distance
This is how I love you
This I love you
This is how I love you
With closed eyes
This is how I love you
With turned back
This is how I love you
With distance

We're still the same here now under the sun

Love is all I need
Hope is what I'm asking for
Lay me down to sleep
It was then that I lost you
Was dragged there too
Under a sea of mystery
Died there along with you...
