Gordon Lightfoot - Walls Lyrics
Im not ashamedTo say that Ive loved you wellIm not ashamedTo let you knowIm just a name thats allScratched upon your wallYouve used it well but what the hellThats what walls are forIm not ashamedTo listen to the fast-fallin rainIn the morning upon my windowIm not afraid to cryIm not ashamed to tryTo be your friend once againcause thats whats friends are forFriends are for sorting out the hang-ups that we hideWalls are for shutting out the love we feel insideIm not ashamed no to talk it over once againTo rearrange my vocabularyBut I cant seem to findAny words to change your mindBecause I left them all behindAnd thats what words are forWords are for explaining the mistakes we might have madeNames are for calling when theres nothing left to sayIm not ashamed, no, to say that Ive loved you wellIm not ashamed, and yet I knowIm just a name, thats allScratched upon your wallYouve used it well, but what the hellThats what walls are forIm not ashamed of wearing out my old grey socksChasing you around the back woodsIm not ashamed to darnNor to proud to find some yarnTo sew them up once againcause thats what socks are for
