[Intro]
(Ooh, ooh)

[Verse 1]
Yesterday is eatin' up my mind
You and me, we couldn't get it right
We were throwing memories in the air
Bits and pieces lyin' everywhere

[Interlude]
(Ooh, ooh)
Bits and pieces lyin' everywhere
(Ooh, ooh)
Bits and pieces like we didn't care

[Pre-Chorus]
Shouldn't be so hard like breathin' underwater
Baby, we've been in the blue
Didn't see it comin', fallin' into nothin'
Ain't there somethin' we can do?

[Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh)
I can feel you slipping through my hands
(Ooh, ooh)
Guеss we built a castle out of sand
[Verse 2]
Yestеrday, I had you by my side
Now we're just like strangers in the night
Pictures of us lyin' on the floor
No, I can't do this fightin' anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
But it shouldn't be so hard like breathin' underwater
Baby, we've been in the blue
Didn't see it comin', fallin' into nothin'
Ain't there somethin' we can do?

[Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh)
I can feel you slipping through my hands
(Ooh, ooh)
Guess we built a castle out of sand
Sand, sand
I can feel you slipping through my hands
Sand, sand
Guess we built a castle out of sand

[Bridge]
Shouldn't be so hard like breathing underwater
Shouldn't be so hard like breathing underwater
Ooh, yeah
[Chorus]
Sand, sand (Oh)
I can feel you slipping through my hands
Sand, sand, yeah
Guess we built a castle out of sand
