Il testo della Western wall

I stand here by the western wall,
Baby, look at that wall, standin' silent an' tall.
An' i shove my prayers in the cracks.
Got nothin' to lose, no-one to answer back.
All these years i've brought up for review,
Wasn't taught this but i learned somethin' new.
Had to answer a distant call,
At the western wall.

An' i've got a heart full of fear,
An' i offer it up on this altar of tears.
Red dust settles deep in my skin.
Don't know where it starts or where i begin.
It's a crumblin' pile of broken stones;
It ain't much but it might be home.
If i ever loved a place at all,
It's the western wall.

Instrumental break.

I don't know if god was ever a man,
But if she was, i think i understand.
Why he found a place to break his fall,
Near the western wall.
