John Joris - Tower of ivory lyrics

rate me

<b>Tower of ivory</b> by <i>John Joris</i><br />love is a jewel from morn’ till night

as long as it stays by your side

but it comes and goes like the river flows

then it acts just like a child

I gave it a try in a factory

when I was hungry for a home

but pay day turned into a good guitar

and we went strolling down the road

Building my tower of ivory

I’ve coloured in my rainbow, you see

I’m gonna make myself untouchable

‘cos this world was n’t made for me

i have no answer to it all

and i know that i never will

but why do babies cry, I wonder why

do tears taste of the sea?
