|
I really wanted for her to touch her knees |
|
|
|
I really wanted to share forgotten dreams |
|
|
|
Go through the motions of loving from a far |
|
|
|
And feel as if I'm reaching for the stars |
|
|
|
But each drop of hopelessness amounts |
|
|
|
To what could be a raging sea |
|
|
|
It could be spring time |
|
|
|
i'd meet her at the gates |
|
|
|
If beauty ever comes to those who wait |
|
|
|
Castles in the air |
|
|
|
If only they were there |
|
|
|
Just like a beatnik love affair |
|
|
|
Those castles in the air |
|
|
|
So let me look into the windows of your soul |
|
|
|
Let me make the most of what i'll never know |
|
|
|
We'll eat forbidden fruits |
|
and sing our favorite songs |
|
And never tell each other we're wrong |
|
|
|
Each drop of tenderness you give |
|
|
|
Would be another reason why I'd want to live |
|
|
|
Would be another chance to sit beneath the stars |
|
|
|
And whisper to each other in the dark |
|
|
|
Castles in the air |
|
|
|
If only they were there |
|
|
|
We'd be so free and unaware |
|
|
|
Watching castles in the air |
|
|
|
Why should a lonely person care? |
|
|
|
What could a lonely person share? |
|
|
|
A broken heart is much too hard to re-mend |
|
|
|
'Cause beauty never comes to those who wait |
|
|
|
Romance is a word |
|
|
|
That should be seen but never heard |
|
|
|
I don't even know your name |
|
|
|
But castles in the air |
|
|
|
We were almost there |
|
|
|
We almost shared |
|
|
|
Castles in the air |
|
castles in the air |
|
|
|
if only they were there |
|
|
|
just like a beatnik love affair |
|
|
|
those castles in the air |
