More than once I cried because impatience let me down,
I could see the gold before the gold was found
And every time I trusted love to lead me by the hand,
It circled back and left me where I stand

[Chorus]
Where is my castle where is my destiny
How much longer will I have to dream,
Where is my sunshine
Where is my valley
Where is the love that's meant for me

The next time I cross over that old bridge I'm gonna stay,
I don't care if the river washes it away
'Cause I'm not gonna take one step until the day I find,
A man with a faithful heart and a made up mind

[Chorus]
