Dreamgale - Castles In The Sand lyrics

See this beautiful place Beyond time and space That shines of glory and grace. It holds a reason to live and Something good to believe in And love to embrace. You thought youd found what youve been longing for all your life, A velvet dream that kept you warm and helped you stay alive. Yet theres a bitter truth you know but fear to say it aloud - The day will come and you will feel its time to give it all up. Its only One more thing to say goodbye to, One more memory to fade in time. On a cold winter day When life seemed pointless and grey Three children gathered to play. The game enchanted their minds And brought a sense to their lives. They played it hours away. It was the symbol of their friendship and their guiding light. They made a promise to each other then to stay allied For all eternity, to keep on playing day and night. But once they grew up they got down to earth afraid of height. It was just One more thing to say goodbye to, One more memory. A man with scientific lust Researched the ashes and dust To find a key to the past. To ease a neurotic strife, The greatest work of his life He had completed at last. But though the mysteries were solved and truth was free to fly, He found it cannot change the world however hard you try. The course of history forever will remain a lie. The past is gone and youre not blessed before the day you die. Its only One more thing to say goodbye to, One more memory. One more squad of false illusions, Washed away like castles in the sand.
