Celtic Thunder Castles In The Air Lyrics

Castles In The Air Lyrics

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 despair



Hills of forest green 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 goodbye

Though loving you 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



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 cannot be part of this cocktail generation

Partners waltz, devoid of all romance

The music plays and everyone must dance

I'm bowing out and 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

And castle walls just lead me to despair

Ain't worth another try
