JIMI HENDRIX - Castles Made Of Sand lyrics

rate me

Down the street you can hear her scream you're a disgrace<br>As she slams the door in his drunken face<br>And now he stands outside<br>And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool<br>He cries oh, girl you must be mad,<br>What happened to the sweet love you and me had? <br>Against the door he leans and starts a scene,<br>And his tears fall and burn the garden green<br><br>And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually<br><br>A little indian brave who before he was ten,<br>Played wargames in the woods with his indian friends<br>And he built up a dream that when he grew up<br>He would be a fearless warrior indian cheif<br>Many moons past and more the dream grew strong until<br>Tomorrow he would sing his first warsong and fight his first battle<br>But something went wrong, surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night<br><br>And so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually<br><br>There was a young girl, whos heart was a frown<br>'cause she was crippled for life,<br>And she couldn't speak a sound<br>And she wished and prayed she could stop living,<br>So she decided to die<br>She drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore<br>And to her legs she smiled you won't hurt me no more<br>But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say<br>Look a golden winged ship is passing my way<br><br>And it really didn't have to stop, it just kept on going...<br><br>And so castles made of sand slips into the sea, eventually
