Castles Lyrics by Gary Moore

0

I'm free to go
There's no more need to stay
Throw away the works of years
And return to Adam's way

Retreat from shadow
To dabble baths and sun bleached joys
Live it out on an island in the mind
Untouched by human flaws

I'm free to go
There's nothing in my way
Up above the rainbow's end
The gold all melts away

Return a hero
From distant lands of fight and fire
Escape into the piece in my mind
And climbing higher and higher

I nearly made it that time
I nearly got away
I nearly made it that time
But I always have to stay

I'm throwing out my tickets
To the outside world
Lost interest in a drama
Which is destined to unfold

I'm heading out for the shores
Of a friendly land
Where every grain of sand
Reaches out to shake me
By the hand

I nearly made it that time
I nearly got away
I nearly made it that time
But I always have to stay
