[Intro]

(Ooh, ooh)

[Verse 1]

Yesterday is eatin' up my mind

You and me, we couldn't get it right

We were throwing memories in the air

Bits and pieces lyin' everywhere

[Interlude]

(Ooh, ooh)

Bits and pieces lyin' everywhere

(Ooh, ooh)

Bits and pieces like we didn't care

[Pre-Chorus]

Shouldn't be so hard like breathin' underwater

Baby, we've been in the blue

Didn't see it comin', fallin' into nothin'

Ain't there somethin' we can do?

[Chorus]

(Ooh, ooh)

I can feel you slipping through my hands

(Ooh, ooh)

Guеss we built a castle out of sand

[Verse 2]

Yestеrday, I had you by my side

Now we're just like strangers in the night

Pictures of us lyin' on the floor

No, I can't do this fightin' anymore

[Pre-Chorus]

But it shouldn't be so hard like breathin' underwater

Baby, we've been in the blue

Didn't see it comin', fallin' into nothin'

Ain't there somethin' we can do?

[Chorus]

(Ooh, ooh)

I can feel you slipping through my hands

(Ooh, ooh)

Guess we built a castle out of sand

Sand, sand

I can feel you slipping through my hands

Sand, sand

Guess we built a castle out of sand

[Bridge]

Shouldn't be so hard like breathing underwater

Shouldn't be so hard like breathing underwater

Ooh, yeah

[Chorus]

Sand, sand (Oh)

I can feel you slipping through my hands

Sand, sand, yeah

Guess we built a castle out of sand
