The Sands of My Heart

by TRAVIS TAPLEY

If I built you a castle out of sand
Would you know each grain is a piece of my heart?
It will never crumble, or fall apart
Created by love, forever it will stand.
The winds of time will never blow it down
Protected by my soul, you are safe inside
Even the tides of life shall be denied
True love braves the wind, and storms all around.

Will you come live in this castle I’ve built?
Surround yourself in the walls of my soul
Each speck of my heart wants to make you whole
Step inside my life, without fear or guilt.
This castle is nothing without you dear
Its walls cannot stand and will disappear.
