Lyrics:

You always hear the shouts

from my battalion

And send toy soldiers out to

help me stand

And when I see you hide

behind these curtain folds

I cross the room to turn the

lights down low



On common ground

we'll build our castle walls

We'll build them stone

by stone and how

With more and more

you know it won't take long

Where it burned orange

let it burn gold



I wouldn't like to learn

a lesson everyday

Godd times, bad times,

it's just the price you pay

But given half the chance

of turning back the tide

I'll stay at home and keep

my boys in line



On common ground

we'll build our castle walls

We'll build them stone

by stone and how

With more and more

you know it won't take long

Where it burned orange

let it burn gold



And given half the chance

To turn the hands of time

I'm always the bridesmaid

Couldn't live with myself

if I tried to be the bride



On common ground

we'll build our castle walls

We'll build them stone

by stone and how

With more and more

you know it won't take long

Where it burned orange

let it burn gold
