In the shadow of the castle walls
Wherever those walls were
Well you used to love to be behind those walls with her
Within these walls 
Well he watched from the corridor 
Watched from the corner of his eyes 
Seemingly waiting for the time 
When the castle walls would all fall down

Yes it was a strain on her 
Watching her castles fall down
Oh but there was a time when he called her angel
Where in the world did you come from?

In the shadow of the castle walls
Wherever those walls were
In this land or in that land
Well the castles all seem to belong to her
And all this talk about love and hate
And our separation way on down the line 
Well they just can't wait, can they?
No they just can't wait 

Yes it was a strain on her 
Watching her castles fall down
Oh but there was a time when he called her angel
Where in the world did you come from?
Yes it was a strain on her
Watching her castles fall down
Oh but there was a time when he called her angel
Where in the world did you come from?

There was a light that lighted the way to the chamber 
Where they spent all their time, well 
There was a light that lighted the way to the chamber door where 
They seemed to spend all their time 

Ooh my love Ooh my love Ooh my love 

Yes it was a strain on her 
Watching her castles fall down
Oh but there was a time when he called her angel
Where in the world did you come from?
Yes it was a strain on her 
Watching her castles fall down
Oh but there was a time when he called her angel
Where in the world did you come from?
Yeah it was a strain on her 
Watching her castles fall down
Hey, hey, baby No one can take you away from me no no one 
In the shadow of the castle walls
