๐ Lyrics
Something follows you back from the other side
From the locked up basement at the house of blue light
Close your eyes and you'll fall right through the floor
There are things in this world that are real
As you're alive, but you're taught to ignore
All the strength that waits at your side
On the wings that heave and they sigh
Painted in the corner of your eye
Where once there were halls and gardens
Where captains' wives would bathe
And tattoo the names of sailors lost to the waves
But nobody lives there anymore
In the castle in the clouds
Oh, nobody lives there anymore
In the castle in the clouds
They'll leave you pounding on the door
To pry open the heart that's rusted shut
Mend the lines of talk that have all been cut
Makes a man wanna cry when he's turned away
You're just a guest in this world, it'll have
You for a while but you don't get to stay
Just as you're turning to go
From the cliffs that tower below
Send you off and let you fall so slow
And all your memories leave you
Alone in the hands of thieves
And con men that carry you off in the smiling breeze
Up to the chambers in the spire
Of the castle in the clouds
Oh, with the sweetness of desire
In the castle in the clouds
Oh, when you get too cold and tired
Drift to sleep and when you wake
All the bad dreams have flown away
Let the stars be your guide
They're passing over one at a time
See them all open wide
And there you look to see what's inside
Oh no, it's true, I can't believe
Oh no, it's you, have I seen you before?
From the locked up basement at the house of blue light
Close your eyes and you'll fall right through the floor
There are things in this world that are real
As you're alive, but you're taught to ignore
All the strength that waits at your side
On the wings that heave and they sigh
Painted in the corner of your eye
Where once there were halls and gardens
Where captains' wives would bathe
And tattoo the names of sailors lost to the waves
But nobody lives there anymore
In the castle in the clouds
Oh, nobody lives there anymore
In the castle in the clouds
They'll leave you pounding on the door
To pry open the heart that's rusted shut
Mend the lines of talk that have all been cut
Makes a man wanna cry when he's turned away
You're just a guest in this world, it'll have
You for a while but you don't get to stay
Just as you're turning to go
From the cliffs that tower below
Send you off and let you fall so slow
And all your memories leave you
Alone in the hands of thieves
And con men that carry you off in the smiling breeze
Up to the chambers in the spire
Of the castle in the clouds
Oh, with the sweetness of desire
In the castle in the clouds
Oh, when you get too cold and tired
Drift to sleep and when you wake
All the bad dreams have flown away
Let the stars be your guide
They're passing over one at a time
See them all open wide
And there you look to see what's inside
Oh no, it's true, I can't believe
Oh no, it's you, have I seen you before?
