I am the one who lives in a tower with a keeper at the gate You are the one who brings me flowers but my heart will have to wait The keeper is a friendly man he works hard every day But woe betide any young man who wants to take me away chorus If I tell you all my secrets will you never tell a soul This is a rat infested pinnacle of the soul Its full of mould its growing old Its full of mould I'm growing cold So I will make a pretty spell to take my heart away And sail into your liquid dreams to keep my pain away Each night I wake to watch the stars and think about your face Bright morrow comes the night is gone and with it every trace chorus I'm feeling cold. I'm feeling cold. My soul is growing cold. My soul is growing cold How many years how many months how many many hours For those who wait for their true love are cursed by the powers
