mclean don - castles in the sky lyrics
don mclean
castles in the air
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.
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.
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 will not be part of the c-cktail generation:
partners 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
and castle walls just lead me to despair.
