Castles In Spain Lyrics

Callus on the mount of Venus Between the hardness and the sweetness

Arms out ready for a fall

Who would have thought it would take so long

Me and my brother when we were children

Made forsythia a kingdom

Until the brambles got the best of us

Until they took our swords away from us

Children hurry, don't stop running

Catch your breath and whisper something

Chase the light up the hilltop in the snow

Just to go back down again

Ooh Ooh

And when I called my little sister

She asked why I don't sing about her

I never did make it out to Phoenix

But she finally got these few words atleast

This world is different than I thought it was

The days don't hang around as much

When you're stuck with siren songs left unsung

When you deify the you that you gave up

So what's the purpose of the practice

We were the ones who built the palace

Out of pine trees and puddles of rain

We were kings and queens of castles in Spain

Ooh Ooh
