The Fool’s Castle - Tommy Collins

The Fool's Castle - Tommy Collins
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 without pride
People call it the fool's castle and I'm the fool that lives inside
She used to live there I thought you were lucky
She had what most girls only dream of
I gave her diamonds silk and satin I gave her everything but love
So 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
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 without pride
People call it the fool's castle and I'm the fool that lives inside
