Like a madman I'm up in the morning

Heading for the walls of heartache

Working everyday bringing home the pay of heartbreak

You are gone and the walls get higher

They are built from the tears of crying

Oh I got to bring you back

I'm working till the day I'm dying

Oh breaking down the walls of heartache baby

I'm a carpenter of love and affection

Breaking down the walls of heartache baby

Got to tear down all the loneliness and tears

And build you up a house of love

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Breaking down the walls of heartache baby

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Brick by brick by brick

Through the lonely night the neighbors hear me

Chip-chipping at the walls of heartache

Calling out your name

Echoing the pain of heartbreak

And your face is there before me

Writing words of no tomorrow

Your letter of goodbye

Is written on the walls of sorrow

Girl

I'm breaking down the walls of heartache baby

I'm a carpenter of love and affection

Breaking down the walls of heartache baby

Got to tear down all the loneliness and tears

And build you up a house of love

Breaking down the walls of heartache aw

Breaking down the walls of heartache baby

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Here go again aw

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Brick by brick

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Breaking down the walls of heartache

Breaking down the walls of heartache
