Do the Walls Come Down

 
Words by Carly Simon and Music by Paul Samwell-Smith and Carly Simon
Live version from her "Greatest Hits-Live" LP


Do the walls come down
When you think of me
Do your eyes grow dim
Do the walls come down
When you think of me
Do you let me in
Do the walls come down

Nothin' like a rainy night
To set your heart rememberin'
Nothin' like a vivid dream
To take you back again

When you think of me
Do your eyes grow dim
Do the walls come down
When you think of me
Do you let me in
Do the walls come down

Somethin' in my pocket
That was written years ago
In faded ink said "You are my fire"
Do you think so

<instrumental interlude-chiefly flute>

Do the walls come down
When you think of me
Do your eyes grow dim
Do the walls come down
When you think of me
Do you let me in
Do the walls come down

Is it easier for you to say
You never loved me anyway
Or do you hide me in your attic trunk
Like a stowaway

Do you think of me
Do your eyes grow dim
Do the walls come down
When you think of me
Do you let me in

Oh, baby, do the walls come down
Oh, baby, do the walls come down
Do the walls come
Do the walls come
Do the walls come down

Do the walls come
Do the walls come
Do the walls come down
Do the walls come down

When you think of me
