Sipping a vodka tonic in your leather-back chair
I put on my make-up perfect but I let down my hair
And while you’re at your party
I wait here patiently
And darling don’t you worry I know
Not to upset the queen
Did we live too fast in this fantasy
Sandcastles were the walls we made
Did we live too fast in this fantasy
The tide comes and it drifts away
Tomorrow we’ll meet at the plaza in our regular suite
Tonight I know you’ll remember just how much you need me
I’m sure she’s very lovely
But aren’t I just as nice
I know that I’m so young and naive
You don’t have to tell me twice
Did we live too fast in this fantasy
Sandcastles were the walls we made
Did we live too fast in this fantasy
The tide comes and it drifts away
My days don’t matter, only my nights
My heart it is shatter, I gave you the right
And it’s not a game like you always say
And you’re all the same, by your rules I play
I love your hellos but I hate your goodbyes
I could strangle you some days for how you’ve made me cry
And yet here I sit, special place for two
You’ve got me now, I’ll never really have you
Did we live too fast in this fantasy
Sandcastles were the walls we made
Did we live too fast in this fantasy
The tide comes and it drifts away
Did we live too fast in this fantasy
Sandcastles were the walls we made
Did we live too fast in this fantasy
The tide comes and it drifts away
