An earlier single, "Saving My Heart" from 1991's Union , was also originally intended as a collaboration between Trevor Rabin and Roger Hodgson. [2] According to Rabin, "Walls" was the last track to be finished for the album. [3]

Rabin and Hodgson wrote a lot of material together and became close friends. [1]
