Asking Why – April ’09

You’ve said it before, that we’ll always be friends
But don’t you know it’s the dream that’s coming to an end
I wanted that castle, built so high up in the sky
I wanted that kiss, made you feel like you could fly
I wanted so much from you and all that is left of bliss
Is this…
There was that one rainbow, fading across the sky
Coming out when the rain fell on sunny days
Well the sun is shining now, and my tears are falling
So where is my rainbow to show for my dreams?
Is it really as impossible as it seems to be…
All I ever wanted was a life of bliss
A touch, a hug, a smile with the gentle kiss
That castle in the sky would have been mine one day
If only I could find the way to build a dream
That wouldn’t crumble under the slightest touch
That would stand up to the disappointments
Life throws at us…
There will be tomorrow, there will be a new day
While watching a sunset that fades the sky away
Tell me where is the rainbow… where is the kiss…
Where is my life, I wanted, the one with all the bliss
Tell me will I ever have that castle built so high up in the sky
Or will I be left here on earth, always asking why…
