I recall how it used to be 
In my younger days 
I built a wall all around my heart 
To keep the pain away 
I built it tall and I built it wide 
I left no room for doubt 
Your love still found its way inside 
And couldn't get back out 
 
I'm breaking down the barriers 
Making up my mind 
I'm breaking down the barriers of time 
I'm taking down the barriers 
And loving what I find 
I'm breaking down the barriers that lie 
Between your love and mine 
 
I guess you know you were not the first 
You may not be the last 
But you have shown me a better way 
And now I'm learning fast 
You gotta go where the feeling flows 
I take it while it's hot 
You gotta give if you wanna get 
And I want all you got
