Castles made of sand,
What you built for me,
Took me by the hand,

I was blind to see.

Then you fall down,

And sink right to the bottom of my dreams.

(Chorus)

Now the dust has cleared,
And I can see plainly that
You weren't worth my tears,

And your empty promises
Echo in my ears,
Now that your castles are falling down,

You'll find out, I am stronger.

Time of your life,

You whispered to me,
You held me by your side,
I can barely breathe.


All the love I had
Was slowly growing, bursting at the seams.

I never thought that
The moments that we shared were never as they seemed.


(Chorus) 2x

Castles made of sand,

What you built for me.
Took me by the hand,
I was blind to see.
