Beyond the Walls
You heard the cries in the street
Right before the town went to sleep
It was nature's warning but you paid no heed
You had this spirit in your eyes
An energy never to subside
And a curious soul that made you wander
The more I try to let you go
The harder it becomes
As I remember how our home
Once held your courage and your love
Before you walked the cobblestones
Before the day you ran off alone
Just wait for me beyond the walls
Listen to my voice echo in through the halls
There will always be a place for you in my arms
Just wait for me beyond the walls
Her disposition free and fair
Seemed to be what called you there
But she left you broken and in pieces
You silly child, you never learn
You had to witness on your terms
And you've left a pain that never ceases
But when I think of you my boy
In the light of the day
I see the places that I'd take you
Where we used to laugh and play
Before you walked the cobblestones
Before the day you ran off alone
Before you walked the cobblestones
Oh, before the day you ran off alone
Just wait for me beyond the walls
Listen to my voice echo in through the halls
There will always be a place for you in my arms
Just wait for me beyond the walls
Right before the town went to sleep
It was nature's warning but you paid no heed
You had this spirit in your eyes
An energy never to subside
And a curious soul that made you wander
The more I try to let you go
The harder it becomes
As I remember how our home
Once held your courage and your love
Before you walked the cobblestones
Before the day you ran off alone
Just wait for me beyond the walls
Listen to my voice echo in through the halls
There will always be a place for you in my arms
Just wait for me beyond the walls
Her disposition free and fair
Seemed to be what called you there
But she left you broken and in pieces
You silly child, you never learn
You had to witness on your terms
And you've left a pain that never ceases
But when I think of you my boy
In the light of the day
I see the places that I'd take you
Where we used to laugh and play
Before you walked the cobblestones
Before the day you ran off alone
Before you walked the cobblestones
Oh, before the day you ran off alone
Just wait for me beyond the walls
Listen to my voice echo in through the halls
There will always be a place for you in my arms
Just wait for me beyond the walls
