Walls Lyrics - Bon Jovi

My mama told me 

When I was younger 

You better speak up 

Don't be a number 

My daddy told me 

When it was thunder 

Go be the lighting 

Don't run for cover 

Who's gonna help the helpless 

Sometimes we're all alone 

These days we're all just looking 

For a place that we call home

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Now we can't climb over 

And you can't go round 

Build them up 

We'll tear them down 

Brick by brick 

Gonna watch them fall 

Build more bridges 

And tear down walls 

These walls 

Are the mountains that we climb 

These walls 

Are the great divide 

Brick by brick 

Gonna watch them fall 

Build more bridges 

Tear down walls 

The space between us 

Is getting wider 

We need this bar to 

Light the fire 

Show me the promise 

Give me some dealing 

There's too much hurting 

We need some healing 

Who's gonna help the helpless 

Sometimes we're all alone 

These days we're one step closer 

To that place that we call home 

Now we can't climb over 

And you can't go round 

Build them up 

We'll tear them down 

Brick by brick 

Gonna watch them fall 

Build more bridges 

And tear down walls 

These walls 

Are the mountains that we climb 

These walls 

Are the great divide 

Brick by brick 

Gonna watch them fall 

Build more bridges 

Tear down these walls 

I remember when the world was smaller 

And we both felt 10 feet taller 

Now we can't climb over 

And you can't go round 

Build them up 

We'll tear them down 

Brick by brick 

Gonna watch them fall 

Build more bridges 

And tear down walls 

These walls 

Are the mountains that we climb 

These walls 

Are the great divide 

Brick by brick 

Gonna watch them fall 

Build more bridges 

Tear down these walls 

These walls 

These walls 

These walls 

Tear down these walls 

These walls 

These walls 

These walls 

Tear down walls
