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 feewl 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.
