A Firm Handshake - Sandcastles Lyrics
If it’s a rainy day, you can just drive away,But it’s sunny outside so we might as well stay.Well I’ll collect some shells,And you move the sand.We’ll build our little sandcastle in a far off landWhere no one gets hurt and no one diesAnd your tears are scared of leaving your eyesSo grab the shovel and start diggin’ deep‘Cause our little sandcastle is all we can keep.In our little sandcastle we’ll have a swimming pool,A great big tower and maybe a chicken coop.We can run around playin’ tag in the yardOh why does this place have to be so far?Well the east wing is doneAnd now for the westWe should build a few more rooms for our friends and guests.When we finally finish the north and the south,I’ll show you why I chose you and why you are mine‘Cause your ears are like the shells I foundThey listen to my soulYour eyes reflect the water and our little sandcastle seems real.I want to leave this world and go to a place whereNo one gets hurt and no one dies andyour tears are scared of leaving your eyesSo grab the shovel and start digging deep‘Cause our little sandcastle is all we can keepOur little sandcastle will probably never exist,But I like to dream and build our lives in it.And I’m sorry for never finishing our roomI didn’t have enough time to make it as beautiful as you.When I lay my head to rest tonightI’ll be dreaming of our little sandcastle lifeWhere we’ll never get hurt and never dieAnd our eyes will refuse to let us cryNo one gets hurt and no one diesAnd your tears are scared of leaving your eyesSo grab the shovel and start diggin’ deep‘Cause our little sandcastle is all we can keep.
