| [00:09.31] |
Well my friends are gone and my hair is grey |
| [00:14.31] |
I ache in the places where I used to play |
| [00:18.68] |
And I'm crazy for love but I'm not coming on |
| [00:27.10] |
I'm just paying my rent every day |
| [00:32.34] |
Oh in the Tower of Song |
| [00:38.33] |
I said to Hank Williams: how lonely does it get? |
| [00:44.01] |
Hank Williams hasn't answered yet |
| [00:47.76] |
But I hear him coughing all night long |
| [00:57.93] |
A hundred floors above me |
| [01:01.55] |
In the Tower of Song |
| [01:28.75] |
I was born like this, I had no choice |
| [01:33.49] |
I was born with the gift of a golden voice |
| [01:38.55] |
And twenty-seven angels from the Great Beyond |
| [01:48.35] |
They tied me to this table right here |
| [01:51.84] |
In the Tower of Song |
| [01:57.40] |
So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll |
| [02:02.63] |
I'm very sorry, baby, doesn't look like me at all |
| [02:07.44] |
I'm standing by the window where the light is strong |
| [02:16.80] |
Ah they don't let a woman kill you |
| [02:20.23] |
Not in the Tower of Song |
| [02:50.93] |
Now you can say that I've grown bitter but of this you may be sure |
| [02:56.06] |
The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor |
| [03:00.92] |
And there's a mighty judgement coming, but I may be wrong |
| [03:10.21] |
You see, you hear these funny voices |
| [03:13.46] |
In the Tower of Song |
| [03:21.26] |
I see you standing on the other side |
| [03:25.00] |
I don't know how the river got so wide |
| [03:29.43] |
I loved you baby, way back when |
| [03:39.29] |
And all the bridges are burning that we might have crossed |
| [03:43.54] |
But I feel so close to everything that we lost |
| [03:48.77] |
We'll never have to lose it again |
| [03:58.95] |
Now I bid you farewell, I don't know when I'll be back |
| [04:03.07] |
There moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track |
| [04:07.63] |
But you'll be hearing from me baby, long after I'm gone |
| [04:17.61] |
I'll be speaking to you sweetly |
| [04:20.17] |
From a window in the Tower of Song |
| [04:46.87] |
Yeah my friends are gone and my hair is grey |
| [04:51.24] |
I ache in the places where I used to play |
| [04:55.92] |
And I'm crazy for love but I'm not coming on |
| [05:05.34] |
I'm just paying my rent every day |
| [05:09.59] |
Oh in the Tower of Song |
