On the beach where young lovers meet
You can see them there as they sit and build
Castles in the sand
Heavenly, she's so heavenly
When she smiles at you
And she helps you build castles in the sand

The time comes when you stop pretending
For all dreams must come to an ending
Remember what happens to castles of sand
The sea will wash them away, oh

And the beach where they used to meet
By the sand and sea waves have washed away
Castles in the sand
Castles in the sand
Where did they go?
Castles in the sand
Tell me, where did they go?
Castles in the sand
I wanna know where did they go
