"Tower"
	Cary Pierce
	From the Album "You Are Here", "I Believe In America",
			& "Live At Schuba's on 05/06/04"


	In this city I'm alone
	But I know she's here somewhere
	Statues of light
	A sea of yellow, black, and green
	I watch from the Tower

	Doorman's away
	Millions below
	But no one's been here for days
	Giants block out the sun
	So little light for everyone
	I watch from the Tower
	
	[Chorus]
	I'm ready to love
	I'm ready to breathe
	I'm ready to give
	More than I receive
	I've lived long enough
	Alone as I am
	Though nothing's deserved
	I feel that I can
	
	Old man on the other side of town
	Lady Doctor two doors down
	A woman crying in the park
	A father sits alone in the dark
	All cry from the Tower

	[Chorus]
	
	Ahhh . . . 

	[Chorus] repeat

	In this city I'm alone
	But I know she's here somewhere
	Statues of light
	A sea of yellow, black, and green
	I watch from the Tower
