Leonard Cohen
Tower Of Song

Well, 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 comin' on.
I'm just payin' my rent everyday in the Tower of Song.

I said to Hank Williams "How lonely does it get?"
Hank Williams hasn't answered yet
But I hear him coughing all night long
Oh, a hundred floors above me in the Tower of Song.

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,
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, it doesn't look like me at all
I'm standin' 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 comin' but I may be wrong
You see, I hear these funny voices in the Tower of Song.

I see you standin' on the other side
I don't... How the river got so wide?
I loved you, baby, way back when...
And all the bridges are burnin' that we might've crossed
But I feel so close to everything that we lost
We'll never, we'll never have to lose it again.

Now, I did you farewell, I don't know when I'll be back
They're movin' us tomorrow to the tower down the track
But you'll be hearin' from me, baby, long after I'm gone
I'll be speakin' 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 comin' on.
I'm just payin' my rent everyday in the Tower of Song.

I'm just payin' my rent everyday in the Tower of Song.
And I'm crazy for love but I'm not comin' on.
I ache in the places where I used to play
Yeah, my friends are gone and my hair is grey

I'll be speakin' to you sweetly from a window in the Tower of Song.
But you'll be hearin' from me, baby, long after I'm gone
They're movin' us tomorrow to the tower down the track
Now, I did you farewell, I don't know when I'll be back

We'll never, we'll never have to lose it again.
But I feel so close to everything that we lost
And all the bridges are burnin' that we might've crossed

And I'm crazy for love but I'm not comin' on.
I ache in the places where I used to play
Well, my friends are gone and my hair is grey
