Castles Made Of Sand (Jimi Hendrix Cover)

Down the street you can hear her scream"you're a disgrace"As she slams the door in his drunken faceAnd now he stands outsideAnd all the neighbours start to gossip and droolHe cries "oh girl, you must be madWhat happened to the sweet love you and me had"Against the door he leans and starts a sceneAnd his tears fall and burn the garden greenAnd so castles made of sand,Fall in the sea eventuallyA little indian brave who before he was tenPlayed war games in the woods with his indian friendsAnd he built a dream that when he grew upHe would be a fearless warrior indian chiefMany moons passed and the dream grew strong until tomorrowHe would sing his first war songAnd fight his first battle but something went wrongSurprise attack killed him in his sleep that nightAnd so castles made of sandMelts into the sea eventuallyThere was a young girl whose heart was a frownBecause she was crippled for life and couldn't speak a soundAnd she wished and prayed she would stop livingSo she decided to dieShe drew her wheel chair to the edge of the shoreAnd to her legs she smiled"you won't hurt me no more"But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say"look a golden winged ship is passing my way"And it really didn't have to stopIt just kept on goingAnd so castles made of sandSlips into the sea eventually
