Before These Walls Were Blue

The world says you're ready when you're 18

And I was no exception to the rule

Eager to try my hand and proving that I was a man

Not an ounce of fear in anything I do

Yeah, I thought I knew it all

Turns out I didn't have a clue

Before these walls were blue

I remember sitting there in that old rock

Playing and trying to get you back asleep

Well, I'd found myself laughing at you laughing

Wishing a hundred time that I could cheat

Yeah, I thought that I knew love

Turns out I didn't have a clue

Before these walls, before these walls were blue

I believed in Heaven, I believed in magic

I believed in a life besides these walls

Now I believe in dinosaurs, in toys, trains and baseball

What you're gonna be for Halloween

I'll be the villain, and you will be the hero

And save the day the way that you saved me

Yeah, I thought I knew myself

Turns out I didn't have a clue

Before these walls, before these walls

Before these walls were blue
