white lingerie

i looked as far as the eye can see

she screamed her love from the balcony

that's how she was so young and free

she wanted to believe

i told her wait at the corner store

she's lightning quick when it rains it pours

it's the kind of love cash can't afford

i wanted to believe

she's got the voice of harmony

and the mind of socrates

when we meet it's synergy

it's only you and me

while we sleep on sacred ground

you talk about this love we found

feel the earth and it's spinning round

and now we both believe

she's so young

yet so old

when she heard the wedding bells

she fell in love with a fairy tale

she's so young

yet so old

when her father said

that even castles turn to sand someday

castles turn to sand someday

even castles turn to sand someday

white flowers and white lingerie

the marching band with the red barrettes

the parents showed on wedding day

they wanted to believe

she's walking in just like the queen

but when she falls

there was no king

the best to say he left the scene

she never wanted to believe

she's so young

yet so old

when she heard the wedding bells

she fell in love with a fairy tale

she's so young

yet so old

when her father said

that even castles turn to sand someday

castles turn to sand someday

even castles turn to sand someday

oh no

this isn't how it's all supposed to be

all this can change so easily

oh no

all that remained has washed into the sea

so she'll just take her sweet time

she's so young

yet so old

when she heard the wedding bells

she fell in love with a fairy tale

she's so young

yet so old

when her father said

that even castles turn to sand someday

castles turn to sand someday

castles turn to sand someday

even castles turn to sand someday
