Been watchin' you, listenin' to your velvet words

Funny how a little spark starts a fire

Seems like you've forgotten that we were brothers in

the fight

Like a pup at your heels, I wanna know what's come

between us



It's a barrier

A wall of doubt, mistrust and confusion

A barrier

You're throwin' me a crust when I'm starvin' for a meal

A barrier

I think I know you but I come away wonderin'

If we could only find a way to step across that line

And break the barrier



Yeah, you told me - don't wanna feel the labor pains

Just wanna see the child and keep on walkin'

But you're in this too - somehow I gotta get to you

All the jazzin' is fine - can't we just cut it to the

bone?



And break the barrier

This wall of doubt, mistrust and confusion

A barrier

I'm shakin' my head as I hang up the phone

A barrier

I think I know ya but I come away wonderin'

If we could only find away to step across that line



A touch of fear and a pre-conceived notion

Really not meant to accuse you

Can't talk that way coz it's not in style

Just wanna reach you

A cloud of semantics in a sky of options

Don'tcha think I know your joy and feel your pain

To go ten feet gotta walk a mile

Because I love you, I wanna get it right



Break the barrier

A wall of doubt, mistrust and confusion

A barrier

Together we could turn it into a door

A barrier

I think I know you well enough to say

Together we can find a way to step across that line



Break the barrier

And break the barrier

Break the barrier

And break the barrier
