Story Behind the Song
Guitar on the Wall tells a story deep from a lonely heart. The lyricist muses, “Six o’clock/I’m all alone/Shadows find their way back home/Silence does the talkin’/At a table set for one/Out of nowhere, suddenly/waves of sound wash over me/ fillin' up the empty spaces/Here to kingdom come.” The beloved left behind “a guitar on the wall/ that plays when you’re not here/each night when you don’t call.” Listen to the lonely strumming and hear the soul from the Guitar on the Wall.
