They may have ten walls, but I have four
These might be silver,
but mine are tall
They may be cardboard,
but they are strong
They hold us together when our days are long
Let's play house
Like you said we would, start from the ground
Then slowly build it up, might not be much
But it's everything to us,
oh Smooth out the crinkles,
lay the pages down
with pride Newspaper houses,
but at least I call them
mine Take from your pocket all you own and lay
it down Crinkle notes and chocolate pennies
Let's build a castle in the sky
We're building castles in the sky It may be small,
but it's paradise
You and I
No picket fences or fields of gold
The grass is greener,
but it feels so cold Home will always be wherever you belong
A palace in the sky, in the sky, in the sky
Let's play house
Like you said we would, start from the
ground Then slowly build it up,
might not be much
But it's everything to us,
oh Let's build a castle in the sky
It may be small, but it's
paradise We're building castles in the sky
Pick up the bricks,
pick up the bridges,
you and I
Every house is a palace,
every room we build Big or small,
doesn't matter,
it'll be strong
Like steel Floating high in the sky doesn't mean it isn't real
See the walls,
how they glitter,
glitter For you and I
Let's build a castle in the sky It may be small,
but it's paradise
You and I We're building castles
