Lyrics: Burt Bacharach. Tower of Strength.

<intro trombone>

If I were a tower of strength, I'd walk away
I'd look in your eyes and here's what I'd say
"i don't want you, I don't need you, I don't love you any more"
And I'd walk out that door

You'd be down on your knees
You'd be calling to me-ee
But a tower of a-strength is a-something <huge gulp>
I'll never be

<more trombone>

If I were a tower of strength, I'd watch you cry
I'd laugh at your tears and tell you goodbye
"i don't want you, I don't need you, I don't love you any more"
And I'd walk out that door


You'd be down on your knees
You'd be calling to me-ee
But a tower of a-strength is a-something <huge gulp>
I'll never be

<brief trombone interlude>

"i don't want you, I don't a-need you, I don't love you any more"
And I'd walk out that door

You'd be down on your knees, ahh-huh
You'd be calling to me-ee-ee
But a tower of a-strength is a-something <huge gulp>
I'll never be
