Met you at the mall Didn't know how far I would fall My friends said I was a fool (You're a fool) - shut up 'Cause you were older and got kicked out of school - you're so rad Together we were gonna travel the globe From Alberta to Ontario
But now I'm building Sandcastles in the sand (2x) Thought I could fly when you held my hand - thought I could fly Now, eternity turns to black and white It was the greatest week and a half Of my life
We used to go to the beach Back when happiness was in my reach - so close On our favorite bench We'd sit and talk and you taught me to French You're good at pull-ups and have radical hair I hate my dad, he's so unfair You don't understand our love
But now I'm building Sandcastles in the sand Thought I could fly when I held your hand - I was wrong Eternity turns to black and white It was the greatest week and a half Of my life
It's crazy No one gets me Castles wash away Come back please I changed my mind Let's go all the way I miss you
Sandcastles in the sand I miss your hair Thought I could fly when I held your hand I thought you were the one Sandcastles wash away I'm ready, let's do it And all that's left is some sand the next day - sand the next day Sandcastles may be - I'm on the pill now But now all they do is remind me of you let's go all the way, you said it'd be ok, I'm sorry Sandcastles wash away
