Lyrics

Ivory Tower

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

She can't sleep for the dreams

That walk inside

Tear down the walls

Are standing still

She's seen the shadows

Drift and flow

Still can't make up her mind

The ivory tower

Stands in the moonlight

Every footstep echoing

Along its gleaming edge

I was the candle

I was the night

Darker than desire

Come down from your ivory tower

Come down from your ivory tower

Come down from your ivory tower

Come down from your ivory tower

Like a river breaks into the sea

Like a summer rain she breaks on me

and falls....

Across the battlefield

The lines are drawn

How tired lies inside us

When we live behind these walls

Hoping distances will hide us

Come down from your ivory tower

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower...

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)

Come down from your ivory tower

(Come down)
