Castles In The Air - Hoodoo Gurus

Once I built a castle in the air

A home for you and I-

In a blue, blue sky

We’d leave behind the weight of worldly care

I thought we could fly

We only had to try

Ah, I had to learn fast, (For your own good)

I had to learn fast

And when I knew at last (You understood)

I knew at last

Hell and heaven can be one and the same

If you don’t know how

You should know by now

Every pleasure always holds an equal amount of pain

But it all works out

I have no doubt

Ah, we had to learn fast, (For our own good)

We had to barn fast

And when we knew at last (When we understood)

We knew at last

Every kite has got to have a string for it to fly

Up to who knows where?

Castles in the air

So there are strings attached to you and I

Though they hold us tight

We can take flight
