Met you at the mall
Didn't know how far I would fall
My friends said I was a fool
("You're a fool" "Shut up")
'Cuz you were older and got kicked out of school
("You're so rad")
Together we were gonna travel the globe
From Alberta to Ontario
But now I'm building
Sandcastles in the sand
Thought I could fly when you held my hand
("But now")
Eternity turns to black and white
It was the greatest week and a half of my life.
We used to go to the beach
Back when happiness was in our reach
("We were so close")
On our favorite bench
We'd sit and talk and you taught me to French
You're good at pull-ups and have radical hair
I hate my dad, he's so unfair
("You don't understand our love")
But now I'm building
Sandcastles in the sand
Thought I could fly when I held your hand
("I was wrong")
Eternity turns to black and white
It was the greatest week and a half of my--
Life is crazy
No one gets me
Castles wash away
Come back please
I've changed my mind
Let's go all the way
("I'm ready, let's do it")
("I miss you")
Sandcastles in the sand
Thought I could fly when I held your hand
("I thought you were the one")
Sand castles wash away
("I'm ready, let's do it")
and all that's left is some sand the next day
Sand castles may be cute
("I'm on the pill now")
But now all they do is remind me of you
("Let's go all the way")
("You said it'd be OK")
("I'm sorry")
