And if she asks you why you can tell her that I told you
|
That I'm tired of Castles in the Air
|
I've got a dream I want the world to share in castle walls
|
Just leave me to despair
|
|
Hills of forest green where the mountains touch the sky
|
A dream come true, I'll live there 'til I die
|
I'm asking you, to say my last goodbye
|
The love we knew, ain't worth another try
|
|
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
|
I know I'm weak but I can't face that girl again
|
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain
|
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain
|
|
Oh, but how can words express the feel of sunlight
|
In the morning in the hills away from city strife
|
I need a country woman for my wife
|
I'm city born but I love the country life
|
|
For I can not be part of her "Cocktail-Generation Partner's Waltz,"
|
Devoid of all romance
|
The music plays and everyone must dance
|
I'm bowing out, I need a second chance
|
|
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
|
I know I'm weak but I can't face that girl again
|
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain
|
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain
|
|
And if she asks you why you can tell her that I told you
|
That I'm tired of Castles in the Air
|
I've got a dream I want the world to share in castle walls
|
Just leave me to despair
|
