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, yes they do
 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, yes they do
 And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually
 A little Indian brave who before he was ten
 Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
 And he built up a dream that when he grew up
 He would be a mighty warrior Indian chief
 Many moons past, his dream grew strong
 Tomorrow he would sing his first war song and fight his first battle
 Something went wrong
 A surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night, damn
 And so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually
 Hear what I say (hear what I say)
 There was a young girl, whose heart was a frown
 She was crippled for life
 Couldn't speak a sound
 And she wished and prayed she would stop living
 So she decided to die
 She drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore
 To her legs she smiled, "You won't hurt me no more"
 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 melts into the sea, eventually
 Where you're going, you'll be okay, sweet
 Yeah, that's the question
 Castles made of sand
 (Where are going to build your castle in the sand?)
 Castles made of sand
 (Where are going to build your castle in the sand?)
 Castles made of sand
