Why can't I fly fly like I flew When I was a child Why can't I sleep sleep like I slept Sleeping in my mother's bed Now it seems so clear Some things will never reappear The world was black and white Now all the grey is tearing me apart They build castles in the sand by the ocean They don't care that the tide will destroy them Leave them playing just for a while Leave them playing in the light Try can't I try to forget the times I lay in my bed and cried Don't let them get The most precious dreams you possess They build castles in the sand by the ocean They don't care that the tide will destroy them They belong where the stars never die Somewhere I used to fly Take my hand let's go Into the sunlight and never grow old Snakes and apples will always be close But don't let go They build castles in the sand by the ocean They don't care that the tide will destroy them They belong where the stars never die Somewhere Somewhere Somewhere I used to fly
