If it was just another woman, I'd know what to do.
If it was whiskey or gamblin, I could pull you through.
But there's something between us that I can't get around,
I can't get over, I can't go under, I can't tear it down.
[Chorus]
I'm up against the wall you built so strong and tall.
You won't let me in so I can never win, cause I'm up against the wall.
If it was money that you needed, I would beg and steal.
If you were restless I'd know how you feel
But you keep me at a distance so close and yet so far,
I touch your body but you won't let me touch your heart.
[Chorus]
