The Towers

(MJP)
This was inspired by the loss of the World Trade Center. I worked with a guy on Long Island that got married on top of the Towers.
The Towers

Come and take my hand we''ll do things differently
Just a littlle while wer're almost to the sea

I can't carry this load alone
My eyes are burning
My legs have turned to stone

We stood together we watched the towers fall
We felt the darkend sky decend upon us all

How can they give their lives for something they can't see
They say an act of faith I say insanity

Somewhere up ahead I hear the water call
Our feet may stumble but they'll never make us fall

I can feel you right here by my side
The world is different but in you I still confide
