Kevin's Song and Lyrics

lyrics

I built it up
Such a long time
Out of brick and out of stone
The blame rests on no shoulders but my own

Built piece by piece and bag by bag
Look by look and year by year
Not a word of criticism came to my ears
I built it high over my head
Beautiful was my delight
I turned around and set the fuse alight

My paper castle how it burned how it burned
My paper castle how it burned how it burned
My paper castle how it burned how it burned
My paper castle how it burned how it burned

I struck a match and all around me
Wondered what's got into him
Dementia or surrender to the whim.

My paper castle how it burned how it burned
My paper castle how it burned how it burned
My paper castle how it burned how it burned
My paper castle how it burned how it burned
'Til there was no return

Now that it's gone for the first time
I can clearly see the moon
