[Verse 1]
I recall when I was small
How I spent my days alone
The busy world was not for me
So I went and found my own
I would climb the garden wall
With a candle in my hand
Far among the hills I'd run
To a hall of rock and sand
[Verse 2]
On the stone an ancient hand
In a faded yellow-green
Made alive a worldly wonder
Often told but never seen
Now and ever bound to labor
On the sea and in the sky
Every man and beast appeared
A friend as real as I
[Chorus]
'Twas before the fall when they wrote it on the wall
When therе wasn't even any Hollywood
They hеard the call
And they wrote it on the wall
For you and me we understood
I recall when I was small
How I spent my days alone
The busy world was not for me
So I went and found my own
I would climb the garden wall
With a candle in my hand
Far among the hills I'd run
To a hall of rock and sand
[Verse 2]
On the stone an ancient hand
In a faded yellow-green
Made alive a worldly wonder
Often told but never seen
Now and ever bound to labor
On the sea and in the sky
Every man and beast appeared
A friend as real as I
[Chorus]
'Twas before the fall when they wrote it on the wall
When therе wasn't even any Hollywood
They hеard the call
And they wrote it on the wall
For you and me we understood
