Fortress

She was alone for so long

That her heart built a wall
And all who tried to get in
Couldn't even go near
Yet deep inside that fortress

Was a lost little girl

Crying out to be seen

And to love tenderly

He had journeyed so far

No one's foul would he be

And every moment he swore

That his heart would stay free

Yet deep inside that wanderer

Was a lost little boy

Crying out to be seen

And to love tenderly

~

Seems to me the child in all of us

Is not so very small

Longing to lie in arms of love

And give our one and all

And it's such a precious blessing

When real love comes to call

But we'd rather build a fortress

Than break down all our walls

She fell apart at the seams

When his love came along

He didn't know what to feel

'Cause he felt it so strong

Seems to me the child in all of us

Is not so very small

Longing to lie in arms of love

And give our one and all

And it's such a precious blessing

When real love comes to call

But we'd rather build a fortress

Than break down all our walls

And it's such a precious blessing

when real love comes to call

But we'd rather build a fortress

Than break down all our walls

Yes we'd rather build a fortress

Than break down all our walls
