(Dennis DeYoung)
Once in a dream
Far beyond these castle walls

Down by the bay where the
Moonlit water falls
I stood alone while the minstrel sang his song

So afraid I'd lost my soul

There in the fog his song kept calling me

Leading me on with its haunting melody
Deep in my heart a voice kept echoing
I knew I'd soon be wandering


Far beyond these castle walls
Where the distant harbour meets the sky

There the battle raged like hell
And every dove had lost its will to fly


Far beyond these castle walls
Where I thought I heard Tiresias say
Life is never what it seems

And every man must meet his destiny
