Fool's Castle

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 climbing 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 and without pride
People call it the Fool's Castle
And I'm the fool that lives inside

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 giving I gave her nothing
She wanted only to be by my side
Yes they call it the Fool's Castle
And I'm the fool that lives inside
