Styx - Castle Walls lyrics

rate me

Written by Dennis DeYoung

Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung

Once in a dream

Far beyond these castle walls

Down near the bay

Where the moonlit water falls

I stood alone

While the minstrel sang his song

So afraid I'd lost my soul

There in the fog his song kept calling me

Leading me on with its haunting melody

Deep in my heart a voice kept echoing

I knew I'd soon be wandering

Far beyond these castle walls

Where the distant harbour meets the sky

There the battle raged like hell

And every dove had lost its will to fly

Far beyond these castle walls

Where I thought I heard Tiresias say

Life is never what it seems

And every man must meet his destiny
