Towers lyrics

Play 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 Has 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 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? The 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 It's a long road to heaven It's a far drop to hell I pray we out-live this fountain I reckon only time can tell 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
