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 climbin' up to the roof top as if there's something they'd like to hide

People call it a 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 a 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 a 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 a Fool's Castle and I'm the fool that lives inside...
