Fortress Around Your Heart (心中的堡垒) - The Tierney Sutton Band/Tierney Sutton/Christian Jacob/Kevin Axt[00:00:00]

Under the ruins of a walled city[00:00:23]

Crumbling towers in beams of yellow light[00:00:26]

No flags of truce no cries of pity[00:00:30]

The siege guns had been pounding through the night[00:00:33]

It took a day to build the city[00:00:37]

We walked through it's streets in the afternoon[00:00:41]

As I returned across the fields I'd known[00:00:45]

I recognised the walls that I once made[00:00:48]

I had to stop in my tracks for fear[00:00:52]

Of walking on the mines I'd laid[00:00:55]

Then I went off to fight some battle[00:01:13]

That I'd invented inside my head[00:01:17]

Away so long for years and years[00:01:20]

You probably thought or even wished that I was dead[00:01:24]

While the armies all are sleeping[00:01:28]

Beneath the tattered flag we'd made[00:01:32]

I had to stop in my tracks for fear[00:01:35]

Of walking on the mines I'd laid[00:01:38]

And if I've built this fortress around your heart[00:01:42]

Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire[00:01:50]

Then let me build a bridge[00:01:57]

For I cannot fill the chasm[00:02:01]

And let me set the battlements on fire[00:02:04]

This prison has now become your home[00:02:46]

A sentence you seem prepared to pay[00:02:49]

It took a day to build the city[00:02:53]

We walked through it's streets in the afternoon[00:02:56]

As I returned across the lands I'd known[00:03:00]

I recognised the fields where I'd once played[00:03:04]

I had to stop in my tracks for fear[00:03:07]

Of walking on the mines I'd laid[00:03:11]

And if I've built this fortress around your heart[00:03:14]

Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire[00:03:22]

Then let me build a bridge[00:03:29]

For I cannot fill the chasm[00:03:33]

And let me set the battlements[00:03:37]

Let me set the battlements[00:03:41]

Let me set the battlements on fire[00:03:45]
