Western Wall Lyrics - Singles - Cash Roseanne

I stand here by the western wall, 

Baby, look at that wall, standin' silent an' tall. 

An' I shove my prayers in the cracks. 

Got nothin' to lose, no-one to answer back. 

All these years I've brought up for review, 

Wasn't taught this but I learned somethin' new. 

Had to answer a distant call, 

At the western wall. 

An' I've got a heart full of fear, 

An' I offer it up on this altar of tears. 

Red dust settles deep in my skin. 

Don't know where it starts or where I begin. 

It's a crumblin' pile of broken stones; 

It ain't much but it might be home. 

If I ever loved a place at all, 

It's the western wall. 

Instrumental break. 

I don't know if God was ever a man, 

But if she was, I think I understand. 

Why he found a place to break his fall, 

Near the western wall.
