Castles Made Of Sand

Down the street you can hear her scream "you're a disgrace"

As she slams the door in his drunken face

And now he stands outside and all the neighbors start to gossip and drool

He cries "oh girl, you must be mad

What happened to the sweet love you and me had?"

Against the door he leans and starts a scene

And his tears fall and burn the garden green

And so castles made of sand, fall in the sea, eventually

A little Indian brave who before he was ten, played war game sin

The woods with his Indian friends, and he built a dream that when he

Grew up, he would be a fearless warrior Indian Chief

Many moons passed and more the dream grew strong, until tomorrow

He would sing his first war song

And fight his first battle, but something went wrong

Surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night

And so castles made of sand, melts into the sea, eventually

There was a young girl, whose heart was a frown

Because she was crippled for life, and couldn't speak a sound

And she wished and prayed she would stop living, so she decided to die

She drove her wheel chair to the edge of the shore, and to her legs she smiled

You won't hurt me no more

But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say

Look, a golden winged ship is passing my way

And it really didn't have to stop, it just kept on going

And so castles made of sand slips into the sea

Eventually
