 Main points
• In medieval society, noblemen and knights lived in castles. They lived
with servants, soldiers and craftsmen. Big castles had gardens, church
and dungeons.

• There were big walls around the castle and usually there was a moat
filled with water to protect the castle from attack.

• A drawbridge over the moat was the entrance to the castle.

• Life in the castle was boring because many of the people rarely went
outside the castle walls.

• Today there are still hundreds of castles around the world and many
are open to tourists.

Lyrics
And if she asks you why i can tell her that.
I told you that I’m tired of casltes in the air.
I’ve got a dream I want the world two share, and casltes walls just lead me to despair.
Hills of forest green whene the mountians tuch the sky.
A dream come true.
I’ll live there till I die.
I’m asking you to say my last goodbye.
I love we knew aint worth another try.
Save me from all the trouble and the pain.
I know I’m weak but I can’t face that girl again.
Tell he the reasons why I can’t remain.
Perhaps she’ll understand if you tell it to her plain.
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 live.
For I will not be part of her cocktail generation.
Partners, waltz devoid of all romance.
The music plays and everyone must dance.
I’m bowing out.
I need a second chance.
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.
And if she asks 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 castles walls just lead me to despair
