[Verse 1]
On the beach where young lovers meet
You can see them there as they sit and build
Castles in the sand

[Verse 2]
Heavenly, she's so heavenly
When she smiles at you and she helps you build
Castles in the sand

[Bridge]
The time comes when you stop pretending
For all dreams must come to an ending
Remember what happens to castles of sand
The sea will wash them away, oh

[Verse 3]
On the beach where they used to meet
By the sand and sea, waves have washed away
Castles in the sand

[Outro]
Castles in the sand
Where did they go?
Castles in the sand
Tell me, where did they go?
Castles in the sand
I wanna know where did they go
Castles in the sand
Please tell me where did they go
