So Much for Dreaming
[Chorus]
Little girls dream of castles in the sky
(Little girls dream of castles in the sky)
A penthouse here and one in London (A penthouse here)
Bye and bye
So much for dreaming
So much for dreaming
[Verse 1]
It's all very sad
But you're wiser by now
What was she seeking?
You gave her everything
[Verse 2]
And when was the time (When was the time)
You lost her and how? (You loved her and how?)
Did all the giving, start going unreturned?
Now, you've learned
[Bridge]
You'll never buy her now (Never buy her now)
You've lost her (You love her)
Ah, you'll never buy her now (Never buy her now)
You've lost her (You love her)
[Chorus]
Little girls dream of castles in the sky
(Little girls dream of castles in the sky)
A penthouse here and one in London (A penthouse here)
Bye and bye
So much for dreaming
So much for dreaming
[Verse 3]
What can you do?
All your credit's run dry
No time to bewitch her
And you're poor with all your things
[Verse 4]
And she knows by now (She knows by now)
You continually try (You continually try)
Paying the piper to make dreams come true
It was left to you
[Bridge]
You'll never buy her now (Never buy her now)
You've lost her (You love her)
Ah, you'll never buy her now (Never buy her now)
You've lost her (You love her)
[Outro]
So much for dreaming
So much for dreaming
