Wade Bowen - Before These Walls Were Blue Lyrics

The world says you're ready when you're eighteen
And I was no exception to the rule
Eager to try my hand and provin' that I was a man
Not an ounce of fear in anything I'd 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 rocker
Three A-M, trying to get you back asleep
Well I'd find myself laughing at you laughing
Wishing the hands of 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 believe in Heaven, I believe in magic,
I believe in a life outside these walls
Now I believe
In dinosaurs, in toy trains, and baseball
What are you gonna be for Halloween
I'll be the villain and you 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
