Goodbye Baby a.k.a. The Tower

Don't take me to the tower
And take my child away
'Twas I who was the hourglass
And the sands of time like shattering glass
Went past me, like a tunnel to the sea
And I who went to sleep as two
Woke up as one, now only you remain
You'll close your eyes and travel back
To the time when the light went fading fast
And the words you'll never, never forget, oh no
As you slipped away...
Goodbye, baby
I hope your heart's not broken
Don't forget me
Yes, I was outspoken
You were with me all the time
I'll be with you one day
And I who went to sleep in tears
Woke up in tears for all of the years
And I who never, never said goodbye
As I slipped away...
Goodbye, baby
I hope your heart's not broken
Don't forget me
Yes, I was outspoken
You were with me all the time
I'll be with you one day
Goodbye, baby
I hope your heart's not broken
Don't forget me
Yes, I was outspoken
You were with me all the time
I'll be with you one day
Yes, I'll be with you one day

Well, this is the final of the old demos of Stevie's on Say You Will (and it is also known as The Tower), and it's heartbreaking. Just plain and simple. I'm not gonna get into what I think this one is about unless Stevie says something first, but it's from 1979 and even though it's in her journals for the 9-11 thing on Nicksfix, I know that there's no way it's totally about the towers falling.
