Lyrics and translation
Original
Over time, I've been building my castle of love.
Just for two, though you never knew you were my reason.
I've gone much too far for you now to say that I've got to throw my castle away. Over dreams,
I have picked out a perfect come true.
Though you never knew it was of you
I'd been dreaming.
The sandman has come from too far away for you to say, "Come back some other day.
" And though you don't believe that they do, they do come true, for did my dreams come true when I looked at you?
And maybe, too, if you would believe, you, too, might be overjoyed, over loved, over me.
Over heart,
I have painfully turned every stone.
Just to find
I had found what I searched to discover.
I've gone much too far for me now to find the love that I sought can never be mine.
And though you don't believe that they do, they do come true, for did my dreams come true when I looked at you?
And maybe, too, if you would believe, you, too, might be overjoyed, over loved, over me.
And though they all say improbable, what do they know?
For in romance, all true love needs is a chance, and maybe with a chance you will find you, too, like I, overjoyed, over loved, over you.
Oh, oh, over you.
