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...
