Gordon Lightfoot
Walls

I'm not ashamed
To say that I've loved you well
I'm not ashamed
To let you know
I'm just a name that's all
Scratched upon your wall
You've used it well but what the hell
That's what walls are for
I'm not ashamed
To listen to the fast-fallin' rain
In the morning upon my window
I'm not afraid to cry
I'm not ashamed to try
To be your friend once again
'Cause that's what's friends are for

Friends are for sorting out the hang-ups that we hide
Walls are for shutting out the love we feel inside

I'm not ashamed no to talk it over once again
To rearrange my vocabulary
But I can't seem to find
Any words to change your mind
Because I left them all behind
And that's what words are for

Words are for explaining the mistakes we might have made
Names are for calling when there's nothing left to say

I'm not ashamed, no, to say that I've loved you well
I'm not ashamed, and yet I know
I'm just a name, that's all
Scratched upon your wall
You've used it well, but what the hell
That's what walls are for

I'm not ashamed of wearing out my old grey socks
Chasing you around the back woods
I'm not ashamed to darn
Nor to proud to find some yarn
To sew them up once again
'Cause that's what socks are for


Mirror lyrics:

'Cause that's what socks are for
To sew them up once again
Nor to proud to find some yarn
I'm not ashamed to darn
Chasing you around the back woods
I'm not ashamed of wearing out my old grey socks

That's what walls are for
You've used it well, but what the hell
Scratched upon your wall
I'm just a name, that's all
I'm not ashamed, and yet I know
I'm not ashamed, no, to say that I've loved you well

Names are for calling when there's nothing left to say
Words are for explaining the mistakes we might have made

And that's what words are for
Because I left them all behind
Any words to change your mind
But I can't seem to find
To rearrange my vocabulary
I'm not ashamed no to talk it over once again

Walls are for shutting out the love we feel inside
Friends are for sorting out the hang-ups that we hide

'Cause that's what's friends are for
To be your friend once again
I'm not ashamed to try
I'm not afraid to cry
In the morning upon my window
To listen to the fast-fallin' rain
I'm not ashamed
That's what walls are for
You've used it well but what the hell
Scratched upon your wall
I'm just a name that's all
To let you know
I'm not ashamed
To say that I've loved you well
I'm not ashamed

our common grave

cube of odium

setã¤, tee minusta tã¤hti

erase the doubt

tysta hjã¤rtan

your past

in it for love

guess why

give

bloom

narua

when life gets boring

my little one

hold your horses

great speckled bird

i'm hungry

get up, get up, get up

cold day in the sun

que ca ne finisse jamais
