Paroles de Towers
Four, three, two, onePlay me something gently, I'm across the ocean, missing home
There are lights on sparklin' towers that shine dark when seen alone
Somewhere there's a mountain that overlooks the sea
I wonder if that mountain's got more rock than my band and me
And I ain't no victim to a naive boy's dreams
But I wish you were here now to see these damned old sparklin' things
It's a long road to Heaven
It's a far drop to Hell
I pray we outlive this fountain
I reckon time will tell
The stronger folks keep goin'
No matter where they've been
And there are lights on sparklin' towers
That I'll never see again
And I am not the person that I was yesterday
And the things I'm seeing now will never be the same
Do you think God's a person? Or the blinking lights
That reflect in her eyes while she walks these streets at night?
Do you think God's a person?
Or is He just the sound of laughter through the walls in a place I haven't found?
The stronger folks keep goin'
No matter where they've been
There are lights on sparklin' towers
That I'll never see again
Do you think God's a person? Or is He just the sound
Of early mornin' creakin' on some floors way out of town?
I'm breathing in a life and my legs are wokin' fine
Do you think God's a person or the slowly-passing time?
And I ain't no victim to a naive boy's dreams
But I wish you were here now to see these damned old sparklin' things
It's a long road to Heaven
It's a far drop to Hell
I pray we outlive this fountain
I reckon time will tell
The stronger folks keep goin'
No matter where they've been
And there are lights on sparklin' towers
That I'll never see again
And I am not the person that I was yesterday
And the things I'm seeing now will never be the same
Do you think God's a person? Or the blinking lights
That reflect in her eyes while she walks these streets at night?
Do you think God's a person?
Or is He just the sound of laughter through the walls in a place I haven't found?
The stronger folks keep goin'
No matter where they've been
There are lights on sparklin' towers
That I'll never see again
Do you think God's a person? Or is He just the sound
Of early mornin' creakin' on some floors way out of town?
I'm breathing in a life and my legs are wokin' fine
Do you think God's a person or the slowly-passing time?
