Wendy Mcneill Building A Castle
Left, right, left was the pace of my steps
As I wrestled with a riddle that was making my mind
twitch
It was spring in November, air was full of regret
I said think, baby think, baby how can I change this
Do do do do…
I saw a woman on the church steps by the side of the
street
She had coins in her cup, a child's hand on her cheek
I said think baby, think baby, how can I change this
Took the long way home then went to sleep restless
But I dreamt of a castle rich and bright
And everyone in it was filled with light
Do do do do…
You'll never know the answer if you stop trying
Like bobby said “if you ain't busy living your busy
dying”
Whoever told you it’s pointless, well they're lying
And if that who is you, then you should change your
mind
Start building a castle, don't sit and cry
‘Cause heartache is a hassle and it’s a waste of time
So start building a castle, don't sit and cry
‘Cause heartache is a hassle and it’s a waste of time
So bless the genies and the meanies
And the everyone in between'ies
All the comings and the goings
Of the fathers and the thieves
All the preachers and the teachers
All the girls dying to please
All the movers and the shakers
The ones with scratches on their knees
Start building a castle, don't sit and cry
‘Cause heartache is a hassle and it’s a waste of time
