Sandcastles
View chords used in this chart
The funnest game we ever played
Is thinking of where we could run away
Together further and fur-
ther every day
A party bag filled to the top
Of different places we could stop
A pillow case on Halloween
Thats overfilling with daydreams
I'll take you to the north
And we'll go sleding every day
We'll be pulled by a pack of housecats
In our favourite wooden sley
You'll take me to the sea side
And we'll keep a flock of sheep
We'll swim all day then rule the land
In a sandcastle on the beach
Remember when we walked for hours
Back and forth on Princen Valley (Bow? ~Unsure)
Were you truly upset
Did you really mean it when you said
I'll never let you take me
Anywhere ever again
Was that a threat, exaggeration
Or were you just making conversation?
I promise there're a million other places
I could get us lost
A thousand unmarked doorways
A handful of awkward double-stops
I'll lose myself in you if you will
Lose yourself in me
Then we can wander around aimlessly
Looking for some place new to be
I wonder if one day we'll
Finally find the nerve to run away
What games will we invent?
What will it be like in the end?
