Dreamgale - Castles In The Sand lyrics

See this beautiful place
Beyond time and space
That shines of glory and grace

It holds a reason to live and
Something good to believe in
And love to embrace

You thought you'd found what you've been longing for all your life,
A velvet dream that kept you warm and helped you stay alive
Yet there's a bitter truth you know but fear to say it aloud -
The day will come and you will feel it's time to give it all up
It's only

One more thing to say goodbye to,
One more memory to fade in time

On a cold winter day
When life seemed pointless and grey
Three children gathered to play

The game enchanted their minds
And brought a sense to their lives
They played it hours away

It was the symbol of their friendship and their guiding light
They made a promise to each other then to stay allied
For all eternity, to keep on playing day and night
But once they grew up they got down to earth afraid of height
It was just

One more thing to say goodbye to,
One more memory

A man with scientific lust
Researched the ashes and dust
To find a key to the past

To ease a neurotic strife,
The greatest work of his life
He had completed at last

But though the mysteries were solved and truth was free to fly,
He found it cannot change the world however hard you try
The course of history forever will remain a lie
The past is gone and you're not blessed before the day you die
It's only

One more thing to say goodbye to,
One more memory
One more squad of false illusions,
Washed away like castles in the sand
