Once in a dream Far beyond these castle walls Down by the bay where the Moonlit water falls I stood alone while the minstrel sang his song So afraid Id lost my soul There in the fog his song kept calling me Leading me on with its haunting melody Deep in my heart a voice kept echoing I knew Id soon be wandering Far beyond these castle walls Where the distant harbour meets the sky There the battle raged like hell And every dove had lost its will to fly Far beyond these castle walls Where I thought I heard tiresias say Life is never what it seems And every man must meet his destiny
