Sand Castles by Phillip Phillips Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She called the cops to catch the kid
And now he's gone, no words were said
And it goes on, oh
He ran away from the past
Before it caught up, before he crashed
And it goes on, oh
Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
And you feel the storm arise
See the rising of the tide
As it crawls upon the shore
And breaks your heart
And the waves come crashing in
Like a war you cannot win
And the end is when you watch it fall apart
Just like sand castles
Just like sand castles

[Verse 2]
The old man inside his home
Hasn't left since she's been gone
And it go, oh
It's hard enough to heal the pain
To deal with what the world took away
And it go, oh
Oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
And you feel the storm arise
See the rising of the tide
As it crawls upon the shore
And breaks your heart
And the waves come crashing in
Like a war you cannot win
And the end is when you watch it fall apart
Just like sand castles
Just like sand castles
Just like sand castles
Just like sand castles

[Outro]
And I see no, now I see alone
It's hard to see it all, yeah
See it all
Just like sand castles (All)
Just like sand castles (All)
It's alright
