Castles in the Sand Lyrics
By: Joyce Situ

Intro
I wanna keep the good memories of us close
But it’s hard sometimes

Verse 1
It hurts to look at you
I couldn’t take the truth
Can’t see your point of view
Upset & bruised
So many years go by
I’m speeding down the 5
I rush to your bedside
I am speechless

Pre-Chorus 1 / Verse 1 B Section
Rocked, unsteady
Fragile like the
Castles in the sa-nd

Chorus 1 / Hook 1
Waves approach crashing
Yet we keep building
Castles in the, Castles in the
Castles in the sa-nd
Constantly changing
Make the most, building
Castles in the, Castles in the
Castles in the sa-nd

Verse 2
Couldn’t believe my eyes
Your body’s stiff as ice
Don’t wanna say, goodbye
Swallowed, my pride
Whatever pain you caused
I’ll put it all behind
Don’t want see you die
Running out of time

Pre-Chorus 2 / Verse 2 B Section
Rocked, unsteady
Fragile like the
Castles in the sa-nd

Chorus 2 / Hook 2
Waves approach crashing
Yet we keep building
Castles in the, Castles in the
Castles in the sa-nd
Constantly changing
Make the most, building
Castles in the, Castles in the
Castles in the sa-nd

Bridge 1
I stare off crying
I keep on praying
Hoping ’til I could hope no more, He’s
No longer breathing
Is this some bad dream?
Don’t wanna face this reality
Children play outside
Something comes to mind
If I rejoice when life is born, Now
Can I accept life leaving?

Chorus 3 / Hook 3
Waves approach crashing
Yet we keep building
Castles in the, Castles in the
Castles in the sa-nd
Constantly changing
Make the most, building
Castles in the, Castles in the
Castles in the sa-nd

Outro
Ba da…
Castles in the sand
Ba da…
