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 the cocktail 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
