Franklin's Tower Lyrics


In another times forgotten space
Your eyes looked from your mother's face
Wallflower seed on the sand and stone
May the four winds blow you safely homeRoll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dewI'll tell you where the four winds dwell
In Franklin's tower there hangs a bell
It can ring, turn night to day
It can ring like fire if you loose your wayRoll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dewGod save the child that rings that bell
It may have one good ring baby, you can't tell
One watch by night, one watch by day
If you get confused listen to the music playSome come to laugh their past away
Some come to make it just one more day
Whichever way your pleasure tends

If you plant ice you're gonna harvest the windRoll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dewI'll tell you where the four winds sleep
Like four lean hounds the lighthouse keep
Wildflower seed on the sand and wind
May the four winds blow you home againRoll away the dew
Roll away, roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
You'd better roll away, roll away the dew

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Renowned for his three-decade stint as the bassist with the Grateful Dead, Phil Lesh proved a fan favorite as much for his distinctive jazz playing as for his single-minded devotion to the band, overseeing the quality of every legitimate release. He has issued two solo albums under Phil Lesh & Friends, a quintet that channels the Dead but utilizes only one drummer. His distinctive, wordy writing style, full of allusions, aphorisms, and wordplay, overlays an endearingly low-key jam sound.

Phil continues to tour the country, and often releases digital soundboards of shows for free to keep the community spirit that the Dead created alive and allow the fans access to the music, because as Jerry Garcia once said, once it's out there, it's yours.

His current lineup as of September 2007 includes:
Larry Campbell (guitar, mandolin, fiddle)
Jackie Greene (vocals and guitar)
Steve Molitz (keyboards)
John Molo (drums) Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
