Lyrics
In the 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.
Like a stair reach up
As moonlight, as of fire
In the middle of desire
By the master light that sees us in the wind
We carry on, on and on
Like coldness in the wind
That would change life's true desire
Seeing winter, summer, autumn, spring again
In the quiet of morning mist
I dream of you
In the tallest tower I think I always will
Tall death that haunted me so
Can't find no well design
Can't help it on your own
Surley time will come
When the talents of a lifetime spent with you
Surely makes the best of chance
Like the wind can tell us
For what is true is life
Days gone by
Days gone by
Days gone by
We meet by the tower of true love
We sit beside us in the rain
Smiling with the raindrops clear
Like the sun can tell us
For what is true is life
For what is true is life
For what is true is life
