Townes Van Zandt
Tower Song

So close and yet so far away
And all the things I'd hoped to say
Will have to go unsaid today
Perhaps until tomorrow
Your fear has built a wall between
Our lives and all what lovin' means
Will have to go unfelt it seems
And that leaves only sorrow

You built your tower strong and tall
Can't you see it's got to fall some day

You close your eyes and speak to me
Of faith and love and destiny
As distant as eternity,
Truth and understanding
The wind blows cold outside your door
It whispers words I've tried before
But you don't hear me anymore
Your pride's just too demanding

The end is coming soon, it's plain
A warm bed just ain't worth the pain
And I will go and you'll remain
With the bitterness we tasted
A mother's breast, a newborn child
A poet's tear, and drunken smile
Can't help thinkin' all the while
Their meaning won't be wasted


Mirror lyrics:

Their meaning won't be wasted
Can't help thinkin' all the while
A poet's tear, and drunken smile
A mother's breast, a newborn child
With the bitterness we tasted
And I will go and you'll remain
A warm bed just ain't worth the pain
The end is coming soon, it's plain

Your pride's just too demanding
But you don't hear me anymore
It whispers words I've tried before
The wind blows cold outside your door
Truth and understanding
As distant as eternity,
Of faith and love and destiny
You close your eyes and speak to me

Can't you see it's got to fall some day
You built your tower strong and tall

And that leaves only sorrow
Will have to go unfelt it seems
Our lives and all what lovin' means
Your fear has built a wall between
Perhaps until tomorrow
Will have to go unsaid today
And all the things I'd hoped to say
So close and yet so far away
