I know times are hard, Jericho

There's no easy way out

Through the dark came a spark

And he calmed your fear and your doubt, Ohh

Just a look was all it took

And he held your heart in his hand

Over heels, you finally know how it feels

To give love a chance

You let him in, you let him win

Let him crawl deep under your skin

Too tough to break, too strong to crack

Still you prayed one day he'd love you back

But Jericho, why don't you see

There's a world outside the place

That you call security?

And girl, I know the pain's too much to bear

So you've built up your defenses

And ain't letting anybody near

I know it hurts to fall then let those feelings go

Won't you bring down your walls, Jericho?

See, I can tell you've been through hell

By the way you're dragging around

No wings to fly, you believed every lie

And came crashing down

How could he see all you were meant to be

All he wanted was to remain free

Too wild to break, too far off track

Still you prayed one day he'd love you back

But Jericho, why don't you see

There's a world outside the place

That you call security?

And girl, I know the pain's too much to bear

So you've built up your defenses

And ain't letting anybody near

I know it hurts to fall then let those feelings go

Yeah, he hurt you bad then left you all alone

Won't you bring down your walls, Jericho?

Oh, Jericho
