It`s a big house on a hilltop fine carpets on the floor
Expensive polished marble are the steps up to the door
Vines are climbin` up to the roof top as if there`s something they`d like to hide
People call it the Fool`s Castle and I`m the fool that lives inside
The girl is gone that warmed the castle now it`s dark the flame has died
It`s a big house on a hilltop without love without pride
People call it the Fool`s Castle and I`m the fool that lives inside
[ steel ]
She used to live here I thought she was lucky she had what most girls only dream of
I gave her diamonds silk and satin I gave her everything but love
And with my givin` I gave her nothin` she wanted only to be by my side
Yes they call it the Fool`s Castle and I`m the fool that lives inside
The girl is gone...
