Tower Song |
So close and yet so far away |
All the things that I’d like to say |
Will have to go unsaid today |
Perhaps until tomorrow |
Your fears have built a wall between |
Our lives and all that lovin' means |
Will have to go unfelt it seems |
Leavin' only sorrow |
You built your tower strong and tall |
Can’t you see, it’s got to fall someday? |
So close your eyes and speak to me |
About faith and love and destiny |
It’s as distant as eternity |
To truth and understanding |
Now, the wind blows cold outside your door |
And it whispers words I’ve tried before |
But you don’t hear me anymore |
Since your pride got so demanding |
You built your tower strong and tall |
Can’t you see, it’s got to fall someday? |
Now, the end is coming soon, it’s plain |
And a warm bed just ain’t worth the pain |
So I will go and you’ll remain |
With the bitterness we tasted |
Now, a mama’s breast, a newborn child |
A poet’s tears, and a drunkard’s smile |
I can’t help thinkin' all the while |
That their meanings won’t be wasted |
You built your tower strong and tall |
Can’t you see, it’s got to fall someday? |
