[Verse 1] The day I knew you'd not come back I built this castle out of gla** But I could never understand Where the windows and walls began and end No, I could never understand Where the windows and walls began and end [Verse 2] I built this colonnade of sand Stretched out like fingers from my hand But with the waves coming in In the morning I had to build again And with the waves coming in In the morning I had to build again [Verse 1]
