Anouk Castles in the Air song lyrics

The man goes to find out what he is

The madness of the soul in a total bliss

This place we used to live is now a cave

It's where I met my shadows in the darker shades

What happened to the days that were on fire?

My soul is way too dark for my own desire!

Happiness is gone, my thoughts unclear

No one ever wins these kinds of fights

It's hard for me to focus on what's near in life

All I wanted was you to love me

I just needed you to care

Hoped that you would treat me right

When I needed you to be there

But I was building castles in the air!

I'm tryin to see what we were meant to be

Uh, but this is a lost cause, is all I see

Uh, we can never go back, walls are broken

Oh, we're too hopeless, hope when your heart's not open

Anywhere I would've followed you

In time I wish you could see

And realize what you've lost

When you chose her over me

Cause all I wanted was you to love me

I just needed you to care

Hoped that you would treat me right

When I needed you to be there

But I was building castles in the air!

All of me, take all of me

It's all I have left to give

It's all I wanted was you to love me

I just needed you to care

Hoped that you would treat me right

When I needed you to be there

I was building castles in the air!

I was building castles in the air!
