歌詞
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Hills of forest green where the mountains touch the sky
Dream come true, I'll live there till I die
I'm asking you to say my last goodbye
The love we knew ain't worth another try
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
For I will not be part of her cocktail generation
Partners waltz devoid of all romance
The music plays, and everyone must dance
I'm bowing out, I need a second chance
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
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
