Castles Made Of Sand & One Rainy Wish - Jimi Hendrix
Down the street, you can hear her scream, "You're a disgrace"
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbors start to gossip and drool
He cries, "Oh girl, you must be mad
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?"
Against the door he leans and starts a scene
And his tears fall and burn on the garden green
And so castles made of sand
Fall in the sea
Eventually
A little Indian brave who before he was ten
Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends
And he built a dream that when he grew up
He would be a fierce warrior Indian chief
Many moons passed 'fore the dream grew strong
Until tomorrow he would sing his first war song
And fight his first battle, but something went wrong
Suprise attack killed him in his sleep that night
And so castles made of sand
Melts into the sea
Eventually
There was a young girl whose heart was a frown
Because she was crippled for life, and she couldn't speak a sound
And she wished and prayed she could stop living
So she decided to die
She drove her wheelchair to the edge of the shore
And to her legs she smiled, "You won't hurt me no more"
But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say
"Look, a golden winged ship is passing my way"
And it really didn't ever stop
It just kept on going
And so castles made of sand
Slips into the sea
Eventually
Golden rose, the colour of the dream I had
Not too long ago
A misty blue and the lilac too
A never to grow old.
A there you were under the tree of song
Sleeping so peacefully
In your hand a flower played
A waiting there for me.
I have never
Laid eyes on you
Not like a before
This timeless day
A but you walked and ya ha
Once smiled my name
And you stole
My heart away
A stole my heart away little girl, yeah
All right !
Golden rose, the colour of the dream I had
Not too long ago
Misty blue and lilac too
A never to grow old.
Golden rose, the colour of the dream I had
Misty blue and lilac too
Golden rose, the colour of the dream I had
Misty blue and lilac too
Gold and rose, gold are rose, gold and rose.
It's only a dream
I'd love to tell somebody about this dream
The sky was filled with a thousand stars
While the sun kissed the mountains blue
And eleven moons played across rainbows
Above me and you.
Gold and rose the colour of the velvet walls surround us.
