Philosopher Kings, The - Castles In The Sand lyrics

built a perfect house in a perfect town

dreamt a perfect dream and it all fell down

we held on tight like hungry lovers

watched the day break from beneath the covers

had to know for sure what it's all about

oh, this should be easy

oh, just tell me we're happy

just building castles in the sand

i saw the naked light and it burned my eyes

couldn't look away no matter how i tried

i watched you explode when you think it's over

and i burst in colours like a supernova

had to track you down, had to find you out

oh, this should be easy

oh, just tell me we're happy

just building castles in the sand

and tides roll in, and waves get closer, knock us over

but we get stronger every time

we build our castles in the sand

...built a perfect house in perfect town

dreamt a perfect dream and it all fell down

oh, just tell me we're happy,

just building castles in the sand

just building castles in the sand
