Waylon Jennings

Ivory Tower

I've been a believer in many things
I've past a sign post or two
I never could see why the bad folks won't change
Or why the good ones want to
Verse 2:
Everyone's left us alone to our ways
Thinking we might have been right
But i'm not so fond of this being alone
Especially this time of night
Chorus:
Here we are in our ivory tower
All our fears left behind
Looking on down from our ivory tower
Like everyone else has lost their mind
Verse 3:
I've tried to look to myself for my strength
Look to a song for release
Kept all the people i could at arms lentgh
The ones that i never could please
Verse 4:
I've been refining the way that i feel
Towards all the ones who are near
I've been refining the way that i look
For all the women for years
Chorus (x2).
Thanks to David M. Potter (dmp12@cornell.edu) for the lyrics.
