《The Tower》歌词

[00:00:01] The Tower - Chris De Burgh

[00:00:13] A great lord came walking through the forest one morning with a weapon in his hand

[00:00:23] Rich was his castle he lacked for nothing

[00:00:27] But killing was his plan

[00:00:32] When a white bird flew by she fell from the sky

[00:00:37] Nothing was found only blood on the ground she was gone

[00:00:50] Cursing his fortune he turned to the forest to kill once again

[00:00:59] And standing before him was a lovely young woman with her hand hung in pain

[00:01:08] When he saw her his eyes were filled with desire

[00:01:13] He said I must have her she must be mine she will be mine

[00:01:26] He offered her silver he offered her gold

[00:01:30] But she threw it on the ground

[00:01:35] He fell to his knees and he begged her oh please come with me

[00:01:41] What you wish will be found

[00:01:44] She said sire I'll go if you'll put up your bow

[00:01:49] And spare these creatures leave them in peace

[00:01:57] You have no need

[00:02:03] But her words were lost in the wind

[00:02:08] His eyes were fixed on a queen

[00:02:13] And all he saw was a woman

[00:02:18] And all she was was a dream

[00:02:23] Oh oh

[00:02:33] And all he saw was a woman and all she was was a dream

[00:02:45] He took her and bound her with ropes tied around her to his castle he did ride

[00:02:54] In the wood was a bower where stood an an old tower and he threw her deep inside

[00:03:03] Then the birds left the sky and a terrible cry

[00:03:07] Brought thunder and lightning rain falling down

[00:03:15] Tears on the ground

[00:03:21] All through the days on her face he would gaze for she was lovely as the spring

[00:03:30] No words would she speake but leave them in peace and some sad lament she would sing

[00:03:39] Oh one day by the door through the window he saw

[00:03:44] A single white feather lying on the floor

[00:03:50] She was there no more

[00:03:56] Now that great lord is dying his cold heart is crying for the love of a girl

[00:04:06] For many an hour he has wept on the tower for she meant more than the world

[00:04:15] And once in the sky a white bird flew by

[00:04:20] He lifted his hands he cried out in pain

[00:04:28] Come back again

[00:04:35] But his words were lost in the wind

[00:04:39] His castle was built upon sand

[00:04:44] All he has is the memory

[00:04:49] And all he yearns is her hand

[00:04:54] Ah ah

[00:05:04] All he has is this memory

[00:05:08] And all he yearns is her hand
