The Ivory Tower Lyrics & Tabs by Takota
The Ivory Tower
guitar chords lyrics
Lovers and best friends
Are just examples of
Heroes and villains
In an opera
Maybe I'm cynical but
It seems like it's never enough
Fake conversations, negotiations
Never letting up
I know you know
So let's build an Ivory Tower
Will hide, back-up
Will shelter both of us
Suffer all the wars we have to fight
'Cuz love isn't always right
Trouble with feeling
Suffer all the wars we have to fight
'Cuz love isn't always right
Trouble with feeling
Seems like it's all just a game
Puzzled, defeating
And always the same
Excellent beginnings
Kisses and tenderness
Terrible endings
Players defending
The hits and the misses
I know you know
So lets build an Ivory Tower
Will hide, back-up
And shelter both of us
And stand through all the wars we have to fight
'Cuz love isn't always right
Sad but right
Sad and...
I know what happens
When you've got a story to tell
No one is understanding
No one will give you a chance
I know they don't believe you
I know they don't believe you
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know you know
So let's build an Ivory Tower
Will hide, back-up
Will shelter both of us
Suffer all the wars we have to fight
'Cos love isn't all I know
(I know) You know (You Know)
So let's build an Ivory Tower
Will hide (will hide), back-up (back-up)
And shelter both of us
Suffer all the wars we have to fight
'Cos love isn't always right
It's sad but right
