- Martha Wainwright Tower Of Song 歌词
- Martha Wainwright
- My friends are gone
And my hair is grey
I ache in the places
Where I used to play
And I'm crazy for love
But I'm not coming on
I'm just paying my rent every day
In the Tower of Song
I said to Hank Williams
How lonely does it get
Hank Williams hasn't answered me yet
But I hear him coughing
All night long
A hundred floors above me
In the Tower of Song
And I was born like this
I had no choice
I was born with the gift
Of a golden voice
And twenty-seven angels
From the Great Beyond
All they tied me to
This table right here
In the Tower of Song
So you can stick your little pins
In that voodoo doll
I'm very sorry baby
Doesn't look like me at all
I'm standing by the window
Where the light is strong
Ah they don't let a woman kill you
Not in the Tower of Song
Now you can say
That I've grown bitter
But of this you may be sure
The rich have got their channels
In the bedrooms of the poor
And there's a mighty
Judgement coming
But I may be wrong
You see you hear
These funny voices
In the Tower of Song
I can see you
Standing on the other side
I don't know
How the river got so wide
I loved you baby
Way back when
And all the bridges are burning
That we might have crossed
But I feel so close to everything
That we lost
We'll never never have to
Lose it again
Now I bid you farewell
I don't know
When I'll be back
There moving us tomorrow
To that tower down the track
But you'll be hearing
From me baby
Long after I'm gone
I'll be speaking to you sweetly
From a window in the Tower of Song
Yeah my friends are gone
And my hair is grey
I ache in the places
Where I used to play
And I'm crazy for love
But I'm not coming on
I'm just paying my rent every day
In the Tower of Song
I'm just paying my rent every day
In the Tower of Song
I'm just paying my rent every day
In the Tower of Song
