Glass Towers by Rocky Mountain (written by Alan Burke)

This is a sad 80's style ballad I have written, warning that dreams of riches within glass towers will all come crunbling down.

00:00You build your dreams on fantasies

00:18In your ideal little world

00:24But in truth it's all emptiness

00:30Underneath those cultured pearls

00:37Your dreams will all crumble

00:43As you can't cuddle up to gold

00:50For there's no love in riches

00:56And marble pillars leave you cold

01:02Love needs firmer foundations

01:08Build up from the ground

01:15All your world of glass towers

01:22Will all come falling down

01:28You can wear the finest diamonds

01:33In earrings, necklaces, or rings

01:36But without true love to warm your heart

01:39There's only loneliness within

01:42Your dreams will all crumble

01:49As you can't cuddle up to gold

01:55For there's no love in riches

02:02And marble pillars leave you cold

02:09Love needs firmer foundations

02:15Build up from the ground

02:21All your world of glass towers

02:28Will all come falling down

02:34Your four poster bed lay empty

02:39Draped in finest luxury

02:42But without true love beside you

02:44But without true love beside you

02:45How lonely it can be

02:49Your dreams will all crumble

02:55As you can't cuddle up to gold

03:02For there's no love in riches

03:08For there's no love in riches

03:09And marble pillars leave you cold

03:15Love needs firmer foundations

03:21Build up from the ground

03:27Build up from the ground

03:28Or your world of glass towers

03:34Build up from the ground

03:36Or your world of glass towers

03:38Will all come falling down

03:43Before you chores

03:45For there's no love
