Zoe Brush - Sandcastles Lyrics

You built it up high and you built it up fast
The image in your mind, it was meant to last
You started planning for a future next to me
Started building up a castle made of dreams
You told me one time you had a tendency
To look for love to define your identity
But I'm staring in the eyes of a wondering man
Still searching for a home on shifting sand
But it's not safe, love, to give your heart away, love
Without any second thought, in so deep that you get lost
Please don't rush, love, you gotta have patience
It takes time to build something that won't break, love
When the waves come
Yeah, yeah, yeah
When the waves come
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You say you're ready to care for someone else
But you can't love another 'til you love yourself
You don't have to change everything about who you are
To be everything somebody's looking for
But it's not safe, love, to give your heart away, love
Without any second thought, in so deep that you get lost
Please don't rush, love, you gotta have patience
It takes time to build something that won't break, love
When the waves come
Yeah, yeah, yeah
When the waves come
Yeah, yeah, yeah
When the waves come crashing onto the shore
You'll be stronger than before

You built it up high and you built it up fast
The image in your mind, it was meant to last
You started planning for a future next to me
Started building up a castle made of dreams
You told me one time you had a tendency
To look for love to define your identity
But I'm staring in the eyes of a wondering man
Still searching for a home on shifting sand
But it's not safe, love, to give your heart away, love
Without any second thought, in so deep that you get lost
Please don't rush, love, you gotta have patience
It takes time to build something that won't break, love
When the waves come
Yeah, yeah, yeah
When the waves come
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You say you're ready to care for someone else
But you can't love another 'til you love yourself
You don't have to change everything about who you are
To be everything somebody's looking for
But it's not safe, love, to give your heart away, love
Without any second thought, in so deep that you get lost
Please don't rush, love, you gotta have patience
It takes time to build something that won't break, love
When the waves come
Yeah, yeah, yeah
When the waves come
Yeah, yeah, yeah
When the waves come crashing onto the shore
You'll be stronger than before
