Tower Of Song |
| Well my friends are gone and my hair is grey |
| I ache in the places where I used to play |
| And Im crazy for love but Im not coming on |
| Im just paying my rent every day |
| Oh in the tower of song |
| I said to hank williams: how lonely does it get? |
| Hank williams hasnt answered yet |
| But I hear him coughing all night long |
| A hundred floors above me |
| In the tower of song |
| I was born like this, I had no choice |
| I was born with the gift of a golden voice |
| And twenty-seven angels from the great beyond |
| They tied me to this table right here |
| In the tower of song |
| So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll |
| Im very sorry, baby, doesnt look like me at all |
| Im standing by the window where the light is strong |
| Ah they dont let a woman kill you |
| Not in the tower of song |
| Now you can say that Ive grown bitter but of this you may be sure |
| The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor |
| And theres a mighty judgement coming, but I may be wrong |
| You see, you hear these funny voices |
| In the tower of song |
| I see you standing on the other side |
| I dont know how the river got so wide |
| I loved you baby, way back when |
| And all the bridges are burning that we might have crossed |
| But I feel so close to everything that we lost |
| Well never have to lose it again |
| Now I bid you farewell, I dont know when Ill be back |
| There moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track |
| But youll be hearing from me baby, long after Im gone |
| Ill be speaking to you sweetly |
| From a window in the tower of song |
| Yeah my friends are gone and my hair is grey |
| I ache in the places where I used to play |
| And Im crazy for love but Im not coming on |
| Im just paying my rent every day |
| Oh in the tower of song |
