DO MIm REm FA SOL7
So close and yet so far away
SOL7 FA DO
And all the things I'd hope to say
FA MIm LAm
Will have to go unsaid today
FA SOL7
Perhaps until tomorrow
DO MIm REm FA SOL7
Your fears have built a wall between
SOL7 FA DO
Our lives and all that loving means
FA MIm LAm
Will have to go unfelt it seems
FA SOL
Leaving only sorrow
CHORUS
FA SOL MIm
You built your tower strong and tall
FA SOL DO
Can't you see it's got to fall someday
You close your eyes and speak to me
Of faith and love and destiny
As distant as eternity
From truth and understanding
The wind blows cold outside your door
It whispers words I've tried before
But you don't hear me anymore
You're pride's just too demanding
CHORUS
The end is coming soon it's plain
A warm bed just ain't worth the pain
And I will go and you'll remain
With bitterness we've tasted
A mother's breast a new born child
A poet's tears a drunken smile
I can't help thinking all the while
Their meaning won't be wasted
CHORUS
