Tower Of Song Lyrics - Tom Jones

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 coming on 

i'm just paying my rent every day 

oh 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 

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

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 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 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 

oh in the tower of song
