Castles Made Of Sand

Down the street you can hear
Her scream you're a discrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours 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 games in 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
'Cause she was crippled
For life and she couldn't speak a sound
And she wished and prayed
She could stop living
So she decided to die
She drew 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
