If houses tell stories
|
I wonder
|
About these walls of yours and mine
|
They could repeat any number
|
Of things
|
They've heard and seen in their time
|
|
All of the angry words spoken
|
Then the silence that follows for days
|
All that leaves a home feeling broken
|
Lord, if these walls could talk they'd pray
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
If love lived here you couldn't tell
|
Five thousand square feet of living hell
|
And two hearts that need to be saved
|
It all died here from pure neglect
|
Is it too dead to resurrect
|
Lord, if these walls could talk they'd pray
|
|
Two little hands folded tight by her bedside
|
Asking Jesus will my family be ok
|
A child of five is just too small
|
Her prayers alone can't save us all
|
Lord, if these walls could talk they'd pray
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
|
Lord, if these walls could talk they'd pray
|

If These Walls Could Talk
