Started off simple enough Boy meets girl, it ain't that tough
Shared a laugh and a bottle of wine Kiss on the lips, holdin' three of a kind
Picked back up, but we left off Decided to give it a go, no matter the cost
I wanted to love you, but the wall around my heart
Was impenetrable right from the start I learned rejection comes with territory
Details change, but it's the same old story Boy meets girl, no longer agree
Wanted her to change, be a little more like me
Bountiful harvest of sour grapes Got us so drunk, we had to make our escape
I wanted to love you, but the wall around my heart
Was impenetrable right from the start
She was pretty, legs that buckle when I stand Too scared to ask if she would hold my hand
Wrote her a letter and professed my love Two peas in a pod, felt like a hand in glove
I was foolish, a horse behind my cart That's when I started to build this wall around my heart
I wanted to love you, but the wall around my heart
Was impenetrable right from the start
I wanted to love you, but the wall around my heart
Was impenetrable right from the start
Thanks for watching
