Diana degarmo cardboard castles lyrics

She was a rainbow once 

So colorful, but that was once 

Now that's impossible to see, to see 

With a voice subliminal

It's the only sign she's beautiful 

Here's all that's left of her dignity 

She goes...Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey yeah, yeah



There's a girl in New York City 

Skyline's no longer pretty 

Bound for destination anywhere 

She grew up in California 

Big dreams they tend to own you there 

Now she's building cardboard castles in the air 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 



He was a pretty boy 

Rolling cash his only joy 

Now that seems impossible to see, to see 

Used to be one of them 

Now the men in suits are avoiding him 

He's lost his credit card but hey he's free 



There's a man in New York City 

Skylines no longer pretty 

Bound for destination anywhere 

Had the whole world at his window 

It seems so long ago from there 

Now he's building cardboard castles in the air 



Does anybody know 

Does anybody care 

Over here, over there 

Building cardboard castles in the air 



There's a girl in New York City 

Skylines no longer pretty 

Bound for destination anywhere 

She grew up in California 

Big dreams, they tend to own you there 

Now she's building cardboard castles in the air

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



There's a girl in New York City 

Skylines no longer pretty 

Bound for destination anywhere 

She grew up in California 

Big dreams, they tend to own you there 

Now she's building cardboard castles in the air

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (fade out)
