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 and castle walls
just lead me to des pai r.
Hills of forest gr een
where the mountains touch the sky a dream come true
I'll live there till I die, I'm asking you
to say my last good bye ,the love we knew
ain't worth another try .
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
I know I'm w eak but I can't fa ce that girl again
Tell her the reasons why I can't remai n
Perhaps she'll understan d, if you tell it to her pla in
But how can words ex press
the feel of sunlight in the morning in the hills,
away from city str ife, I need a
country woman for my wife, I'm city born,
but I love the country lif e.
For I will not be part
of her cocktail gene ration, partners waltz
De void of all ro mance the music playes
and everyone must dance I'm bowling out
I need a second cha nce.
Save me from all the trouble and the pain
I know I'm w eak but I can't fa ce that girl again
Tell her the reasons w hy I can't remain
Perhaps she'll understan d, if you tell it to her pla in
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 and castle walls
just lead me to des pai r.
