I saw my castles fall today and crumble into dust around my feet

In shambles there my future lay each stone a broken dream so sweet



I built the heaven in the sky where my true love and I could stay

Then came the words that meant goodbye I saw my castles fall today

[ fiddle ]

Amid the ruins of all my schemes there's nothing else to do or say

I'll say goodbye to all my dreams I saw my castles fall today
