Tower Of Song - Tom Jones (汤姆·琼斯)[00:00:00]
Well my friends are gone and my hair is grey[00:00:16]
I ache in the places where I used to play[00:00:20]
And I'm crazy for love but I'm not coming on[00:00:24]
I'm just paying my rent every day[00:00:32]
Oh in the Tower of Song[00:00:36]
I said to Hank Williams: how lonely does it get [00:00:41]
Hank Williams hasn't answered me yet[00:00:45]
But I hear him coughing all night long[00:00:48]
A hundred floors above me[00:00:57]
In the Tower of Song[00:01:00]
I was born like this I had no choice[00:01:05]
I was born with the gift of a golden voice[00:01:09]
And twenty-seven angels from the Great Beyond[00:01:14]
They tied me to this table right here[00:01:22]
In the Tower of Song[00:01:25]
So you can stick your little pins in that voodoo doll[00:01:30]
I'm very sorry baby doesn't look like me at all[00:01:34]
I'm standing by the window where the light is strong[00:01:39]
Ah they don't let a woman kill you[00:01:46]
Not in the Tower of Song[00:01:49]
Now you can say that I've grown bitter[00:02:19]
But of this you may be sure[00:02:22]
The rich have got their channels in the bedrooms of the poor[00:02:24]
And there's a mighty judgement coming but I may be wrong[00:02:28]
You see you hear these funny voices[00:02:36]
In the Tower of Song[00:02:40]
I see you standing on the other side[00:02:45]
I don't know how the river got so wide[00:02:49]
I loved you baby way back when[00:02:53]
And all the bridges are burning that we might have crossed[00:03:00]
But I feel so close to everything that we lost[00:03:05]
We'll never have to lose it again[00:03:09]
Now I bid you farewell I don't know when I'll be back[00:03:18]
There moving us tomorrow to that tower down the track[00:03:22]
But you'll be hearing from me baby long after I'm gone[00:03:25]
I'll be speaking to you sweetly[00:03:34]
From a window in the Tower of Song[00:03:36]
