Verse one In the nighttime When the world is at it's rest You will find me In the place I know the best Dancin', shoutin' Flyin' to the moon (you) don't have to worry 'cause I'll be come back soon Chorus And we build up castles In the sky and in the sand Design our own world Ain't nobody understand I found myself alive In the palm of your hand As long as we are flyin' All this world ain't got no end Verse two In the daytime You wil find me by your side Tryin' to do my best And tryin' to make things right When it all turns wrong There's no fault but mine But it won't hit hard 'cause you let me shine Chorus (2x) And we build up castles In the sky and in the sand Design our own world Ain't nobody understand I found myself alive In the palm of your hand As long as we are flyin' This world ain't got no end
