castles in the air

[sailor *~* v *~*]

this is actually the song that inspired the theme of my website "castles in the air" i'm so attached to the song and i just want to share it. the words are eloquently spoken but if you think they're good you should hear how the music compliments them!

<font color="orangered">CASTLES IN THE AIR
<FONT COLOR="firebrick">and if she asks you why
you can tell her that i told you
that i'm tired of castles in the air
i've got a dream i want the world to share
and castle walls just lead me to despair
hills of forest green
where the mountains touch the sky
a dream come true
i'll live there 'til i die
i'm asking you to say my last goodbye
the love we knew
ain't worth another try
<i>save me from all the trouble and the pain
i know i'm weak but i can't face that girl again
tell her the reasons why i can't remain
perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain</i>
but how can words express
the feel of sunlight in the morning
in the hills
away from city strife
i need a country woman for my wife
i'm city born but i love the country life
for i will not be part of her coctail generation
partner's waltz
devoid of all romance
the music plays
everyone must dance
i'm bowing out
i need a second chance
<i>save me from all the trouble and the pain
i know i'm weak but i can't face that girl again
tell her the reasons why i can't remain
perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain</i>
and if she asks you why
you can tell her that i told you
that i'm tired of castles in the air
i've got a dream i want the world to share
and castle walls just lead me to despair.

<font color="#000000">how that fits in with my site:
"castles in the air" logo is m.c. escher's sketch "waterfalls" which i know is a fountain, but it reminds me of a castle, and the background is a cloud... my dream to share... just a few pieces of me.

(royalty) i need a country woman for my wife i'm city born but i love the country life (tori amos) maybe she's not a country woman but she represents something that alot of us love and either want to have ourselves or have in someone else dear to us.

(magick) hills of forest green where the mountains touch the sky (faeries) when i see the mountains that are so tall they seem to touch the sky i think of magickal things... and magickal creatures.

(festivals) but how can words express the feel of sunlight in the morning (poetry/songs/short stories) an expression of one's self and how they perceive things, sometimes it's easier to express these things in poetic form. sometimes you're so awed you can't. it's so inspirational when you see and feel things like this.

(battlefields) for i will not be part of her coctail generation partner's waltz devoid of all romance the music plays everyone must dance i'm bowing out i need a second chance (my survivor site) in a way i see him as a "victim" in this relationship he's talking about, and he's acknowledging the feelings in this relationship and learning to let it go so he can be himself again when you're a victim of abuse or sexual assault (or self injury) eventually you may acknowledge it and allow yourself to move on and start over again. -- "i'm bowing out, i need a second chance."

and the sailor moon thing was just thrown in there cuz i love sailor moon so much that's actually the kid's section of the site.

just thought i would share. i don't know why, maybe so you can understand me a little better, or maybe just so i can understand myself a bit better.
