“Building Castles in the sky”

Verse 1

Reflections in a broken mirror
Her life’s a tattered veil
Revealing all the heartache
Oh, the stories she could tell

But she keeps them locked inside herself
She’s thrown away the key
Now she spends her time daydreaming
Of how her life could be

Chorus

She’s sleeping in the clouds
building castles in the sky
Dreaming of a better place
just to feel alive

She’s grown weary of reality
it shows in her eyes
She’s been sleeping in the clouds
building castles in the sky

Verse 2

Dreams run through her mind
Like movies on the silver screen
Fantasies and romance
and everything between

She’s been dreaming of a garden
Where heartbreaks never sowed
Love and satisfaction
are the only seeds that grow

Chorus

Yes, she’s sleeping in the clouds
building castles in the sky
Dreaming of a better place
just to feel alive

She’s grown weary of reality
it shows in her eyes
She’s been sleeping in the clouds
building castles in the sky

Verse 3

Don’t wake her from her dreamin’
It’s all the lady has
She has no one to love her
And it helps the time to pass

Let her daydream all she wants
If it puts her up on high
Let her find her joy in living
Building castles in the sky

Chorus

She’s sleeping in the clouds
building castles in the sky
Dreaming of a better place
just to feel alive

She’s grown weary of reality
it shows in her eyes
She’s been sleeping in the clouds
building castles in the sky
