The Tower (1986 O’Higgins Mix) (2006 Genesis & Revelation)
She lifts the flowers from the window box Summer's found now winter flocks She lifts her veil to the morning rain, Wipes her eyes to the summer again
House of jewel shimmer on her face Cut inside, she would dream to taste She knocks the flowers from the window side They fall to the ground, they fall to the ground
Hide away from the raging sun Hide your love from the fire beyond
Now the woman in an aging form She's tongue rolled in, the bushes tall Cowering down with head in hand She cries out loud, she cries out loud "Seems so cold, seems so cold tonight! Seems so cold, seem so cold tonight!"
Hide away from the raging sun, You hide your love from the fire beyond
She can see visions of this force below Freezes her life here in jail She heads to the voice of this rainy day And it cries like a choir in her mind, just stay Sister, hold, now hold, now hold your head Dream a cloud, put out the fire which is your bed She then danced through the kitchen with the force below Her cries now thundered oh-so-slow...
Just living, like a dreamless child with hatred Just living, like a dreamless child with hatred
She's never been quite as cut by life before, Never been cut by way of life before
Hide away from the raging sun, You hide your love from the fire beyond
She can see visions of this force below Freezes her life here in jail She heads to the voice of this rainy day And it cries like a choir in her mind, just stay Sister, hold, now hold, now hold your head Dream a cloud, put out the fire which is your bed She then danced through the kitchen with the force below Her cries now thundered but oh-so-slow
