Текст песни
Sand castles built upon the river shore
A wooden sword, a worn-out cloak I wore
The world was clear, like thunder in the May
A secret dream was living in that day
She was a princess from a magic land
From fairy tales my mother used to read
A hundred foes I'd fight with my own hand
Just to see a smile on her lips succeed
Childhood dreams, a fleet of paper boats
Carried by the river, far away they float
I searched for my princess, as the years went by
But she remained a fairy tale for me, up high
In a castle veiled by mist, beyond the blue
Somewhere past these grown-up days I'm going through
I grew and learned that dragons are no more
And castle roads are overgrown and sore
The world has changed its colors, dawn is grey
My inner knight has lost his final fray
I searched for her in every face I met
For that same glance and lightness of her hand
But in their eyes, a life of limits set
A daily circle I could understand
Childhood dreams, a fleet of paper boats
Carried by the river, far away they float
I searched for my princess, as the years went by
But she remained a fairy tale for me, up high
In a castle veiled by mist, beyond the blue
Somewhere past these grown-up days I'm going through
Sometimes in dreams, I'm back in that old place
Where violets bloom beside the palace walls
She waves to me across the years and space
But dawn arrives and breaks the magic thralls
I have no regrets, I'm thankful for the light
That radiant image I would keep inside
My naive world was wonderfully bright
But now it's just a distant dot I hide
Childhood dreams, a fleet of paper boats
Carried by the river, far away they float
I searched for my princess, as the years went by
But she remained a fairy tale for me, up high
In a castle veiled by mist, beyond the blue
Somewhere past these grown-up days I'm going through
