You keep your heart locked up in a cage
Far too afraid to step out on the stage
Building a wall you let nothing inside
What is it you're trying to hide

Hearts on a sleeve can easily break
Sometimes the pain is too much to take
But guarded hearts never riskin' a fall
End up hollow never really living at all.

Don't stop your heart
From living in the moment
Don't stop your heart
Just do what you feel
Don't stop your heart
Don't hold back baby cuz this is real


You keep it hidden to avoid all the pain
Playing it safe you stay out of the rain
But just this once don't live in fear
Don't be afraid of fallin' tears

Don't close your eyes to the passion so near
You'll realize that there's nothing to fear
Unlock the door and let something inside
You've got nowhere left to hide

Don't stop your heart
From living in the moment
Don't stop your heart
Just do what you feel
Don't stop your heart
Don't hold back baby cuz this is real

So tear down the walls
Tear down the walls
Tear down the walls
And baby let me in

Tear down the walls
Tear down the walls baby
Tear down your walls
And baby let me in

Don't stop your heart
From living in the moment
Don't stop your heart
Just do what you feel
Don't stop your heart
Don't hold back baby cuz this is real

Don't stop your heart
Don't stop your heart baby
Don't stop your heart
And baby let me in
