Texty: Celtic Thunder. Act Two. 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 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.
