Chapman Tracy Behind The Wall Lyrics

Behind The Wall Lyrics

Last night I heard the screaming
Loud voices behind the wall
Another
sleepless night for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always
come late
If they come at all
And when they arrive
They say they can't
interfere
With domestic affairs
Between a man and his wife
And as they
walk out the door
The tears well up in her eyes
Last night I heard the
screaming
Then a silence that chilled my soul
I prayed that I was
dreaming
When I saw the ambulance in the road
And the policeman
said
"I'm here to keep the peace
Will the crowd disperse
I think we
all could use some sleep"
