Tower of song
I'm a singer at a tower of song
Ok now
One, two, three, four
ย
Alright
All of my friends are gone
And my hair is grey
I ache in the places
I used to play
I am crazy for love
But I'm not coming on
I'm paying my rent everyday
In the tower of song
I said to Leonard Cohen
How lonely does it get?
Leonard Cohen hasn't answered me yet
But I can hear him coughing
All night long
A million floors above me
In the tower of song
I'm born like this
I had no choice
I was born like this
With a golden voice
Twenty-seven angels
From the Great Beyond
Well, they tied me to this table
Right here
In the tower of song
ย
You can stick your needles
In a voodoo doll
I'm sorry baby
But it don't look like me at all
I'm standing by the window
Where the light is strong
They don't let a woman kill you
In the tower of song
ย
I've grown bitter, bitter
ย
Of this you may be sure
The rich, the rich have got channels
In the bedrooms of the poor
And there's a mighty judgement
But it won't be long
ย
But I may be wrong
ย
You see, you see, you see
You hear these funny voices
ย
In the tower of song
Oh, yeah
ย
The guitar
The bass
The drums
So nice
Every hour
in the tower of song
ย
I see you standing on the other side
I don't know how the river got so wide
But I loved you, baby
Way back when
All the bridges are burning
That we might have crossed
But I feel so close to everything that we lost
But I'll never have to lose you again
Tower of song
ย
Tower of song
ย
Tower of song
ย
I bid you farewell
I don't know when I'm back
They're moving us tomorrow
To that tower down the track
But you'll be hearing from me, baby
Long after I'm gone
I'm speaking to you sweetly
From a window
In the tower of song
Now you can say that I've grown bitter
Of this you can be sure
The rich have got channels
In the bedrooms of the poor
ย
And there's a mighty judgement coming
But it won't take long
ย
Tower of song
Tower of song

Tower of song
