Analysis of Please, Break Down That Wall
Please, Break Down That Wall (Dedicated To Drew Borg).
I want to be the one to hold you
and let you know I'll always be there.
I want to be the one you talk to
when you just need someone to listen.
Please, break down that wall and let me in!
I want to be the one you share your
ups and downs with each and every day.
I want to be the one to fill your world
with love and happiness for the rest of your life.
Please, break down that wall and let me in!
I want to be the one to say, "I love you,
no-matter-what obstacles come our way."
I want to be the one you come home to and say
you're very happy to say that I'm yours.
Please, break down that wall and let me in!
I want to be the one you choose to be with
to share your hopes and dreams.
Most of all, I want to be the one you want
to grow old with "until death do we part."
Please, break down that wall and let me in!
