You build your walls high
and make your friends human shields.
Behind such an impenetrable fortress
how can I reach you
when we can barely touch?
Come hold my hand
and walk with me in the sun,
let its gentle rays warm you
and let the wind touch your face.
Come with me and we will
fearlessly slay dragons together.
We will run away to the ends of the earth
to watch the sun set
with a pot of gold for pocket money
and a bottle of wine to drink.
I am promising you
the adventure of a lifetime.
But until you get lonely in your stone castle,
until you come outside and find me
under the shade of that old oak tree
you see from your window...
I'll be waiting.
