I dreamt of a castle on a hill
Too grand to be but even still
I yearned to reached its heights until
The dream was gone

I searched the world entire yet
No closer could I ever get
I fell to sorrow and regret
The dream was gone

I know what it may represent
So from this quest I can’t relent
I must atone, absolve, repent
The dream is gone

The castle’s nothing but my heart
Too long have we now lived apart
And where it ends is where I start
The dream is gone
