From the demo, The Tower...
"Don't take me to the tower, and take my child away..." Oh, man...that's sad. ~Angela~ ![]() |

I have to agree, the Tower has the saddest lyrics...what a devastatingly sad song!

I definitely agree with the Tower....truly sad.
Also the lyric from "Ghosts": "To feel the empty spaces she's feeling She depends on her music like a husband And she knows it's no good to fall in love again" This kills me every time I hear it.

i COPIES THIS FROM sARArHIANNONS SITE (many sites have demo and outtake lyrics):
Stevie Nicks Demo Don't take me to the tower... And take my child away... Twas I who was the hourglass And sands of time like shattering glass Went past me... Like a tunnel to the sea... And I who went to sleep in tears Woke up in tears for all of the years... And I had said goodbye before and then... I said goodbye again... And when you hold yourself and know that There were two... Now only you remain... You'll close your eyes and travel back... Through the time when the light went fading fast... And the words you'll never, never forget.... As I slipped away... Goodbye, baby... Goodbye, baby... Goodbye, baby... |

"She is dancing away from you now...she was just a wish, she was just a wish. And her memory is all that is left for you now."
-OR- "Now I know Well, I was wrong To live for a dream If I had my life to live over I would never dream, no I still wish you gone And I will live alone Yes, I will live alone" -OR- "No one knows how I feel What I say unless you read between my lines One man walked away from me First he took my hand" --- Oh Linds, why'd you let her marry Kim? -OR- "And now you're gone and I'm alone, and I'm so lonely Nothing seems to be the same One day I turned around and you no longer loved me" -OR- "Sits across the table...same glass table And she cries to her friend, "Why am I so alone?" He says, "Woah, woah, baby...oh, my baby You have to know...you have to know"

The Tower definitely ranks up there. I don't know if I could pick a "saddest" lyric, but here's a few that come to mind:
"He watched from the corridor, watched from the corner of his eye seemingly waiting for the time when her castle walls would all fall down..." Like someone that you once loved is now waiting for you to screw up and will be happy about it. Not so much sad as it is just upsetting when put into context. "She is dancing away from you now, she was just a wish...and a memory's all that is left for you now." Someone died, you only have their memory left. "The people, they love her, but still they're the most cruel." Again, more upsetting than sad...the people who love you most are the most critical of what you do. "So I ended it all for the both of us, I fell down the stairs, a broken rag doll." Someone committing suicide is never a nice thought...

Brett, that line is from Street Angel. I really REALLY used to hate this song, and I still think it's not nearly the best musically, but I just liked the story of the song.
And yes, I completely forgot about Space Needle... We've got to get out of this place If it's the last thing we ever do A haunting song from the rock and roll past Ooh, they said that too Now we are dying just like them It's a stranger deja vu... And of course: Beautiful faces not so beautiful anymore Getting older is something that really freaks me out, as I'm sure it does to mostly anyone (unless you're a teen). By the way, I'd really like to know what "the tarp people" is all about...anyone know or have an idea?
