[00:00:00] Tower Song - Townes Van Zandt

[00:00:01] Written by：Townes Van Zandt

[00:00:08] So close and yet so far away

[00:00:12] And all the things I'd hoped to say

[00:00:17] Will have to go unsaid today

[00:00:22] Perhaps until tomorrow

[00:00:26] Your fear has built a wall between

[00:00:31] Our lives and all what lovin' means

[00:00:36] Will have to go unfelt it seems

[00:00:40] And that leaves only sorrow

[00:00:45] You built your tower strong and tall

[00:00:50] Can't you see it's got to fall some day

[00:01:01] You close your eyes and speak to me

[00:01:06] Of faith and love and destiny

[00:01:11] As distant as eternity

[00:01:16] Truth and understanding

[00:01:20] The wind blows cold outside your door

[00:01:25] It whispers words I've tried before

[00:01:30] But you don't hear me anymore

[00:01:35] Your pride's just too demanding

[00:01:39] You built your tower strong and tall

[00:01:44] Can't you see it's got to fall some day

[00:01:56] The end is coming soon it's plain

[00:02:01] A warm bed just ain't worth the pain

[00:02:06] And I will go and you'll remain

[00:02:11] With the bitterness we tasted

[00:02:15] A mother's breast a newborn child

[00:02:20] A poet's tear and drunken smile

[00:02:25] Can't help feeling all the while

[00:02:30] Their meaning won't be wasted

[00:02:34] You built your tower strong and tall

[00:02:39] Can't you see it's got to fall some day
