Testo Castles In The Air Don Mclean
And if she asks you why,ÃÂ
you can tell her that I told youÃÂ
That I'm tired of castles in the air.ÃÂ
I've got a dream I want the world to shareÃÂ
And castle walls just lead me to despair.ÃÂ
Hills of forest green where the mountains touch the sky,ÃÂ
A dream come true, I'll live there till I die.ÃÂ
I'm asking you to say my last goodbye.ÃÂ
The love we knew ain't worth another try.ÃÂ
Save me from all the trouble and the pain.ÃÂ
I know I'm weak, but I can't face that girl again.ÃÂ
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain,ÃÂ
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain.ÃÂ
But how can words express the feel of sunlight in the morning,ÃÂ
In the hills, away from city strife.ÃÂ
I need a country woman for my wife;ÃÂ
I'm city born, but I love the country life.ÃÂ
For I cannot be part of the cocktail generation:ÃÂ
Partners waltz, devoid of all romance.ÃÂ
The music plays and everyone must dance.ÃÂ
I'm bowing out. I need a second chance.ÃÂ
Save me from all the trouble and the pain.ÃÂ
I know I'm weak, but I can't face that girl again.ÃÂ
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain,ÃÂ
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain.ÃÂ
And if she asks you why, you can tell her that I told youÃÂ
That I'm tired of castles in the air.ÃÂ
I've got a dream I want the world to shareÃÂ
And castle walls just lead me to despair.
