Lyrics

Cardboard Castles

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

She was a rainbow once

So colorful but that was once

Now that's impossible to see, to see

With a voice subliminal it's the only sign she's beautiful

Here's all that's left of her dignity

She goes yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

There's a Girl in New York City

Skylines no longer pretty

Bound for destination anywhere

She grew up in California

Big dreams, they tend to own you there...

Now she's building Cardboard Castles in the air...

He was a pretty boy,

Rolling cash his only joy,

Now that's impossible to see (to see)

Used to be one of them

Now the men in suits are avoiding him

He lost his credit cards

But hey, he's free!

There's a man in New York City

Skylines no longer pretty

Bound, for destination anywhere

Had the whole world at his window

It seems so long ago from there

Now he's building Cardboard Castles in the air

Does anybody know?

Does anybody care?

Over here, Over there

Building Cardboard Castles in the air.

There's a Girl in New York City

Skylines no longer pretty

Bound for destination anywhere

She grew up in California, big dreams they tend to own you there.

Now she's building Carboard Castles in the air.

There's a Girl in New York City

Skylines no longer pretty

Bound for destination anywhere

She grew up in California, big dreams they tend to own you there.

Now she's building Carboard Castles in the air.
