Cardboard Castles Lyrics - Blue Skies - Diana Degarmo

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 yeah, yeah, yeah, 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 

He was a pretty boy 

Rolling cash his only joy 

Now that's impossible to see, to see 

Used to be one of them 

Now the men in suits are avoiding him 

He's lost his credit cards 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 

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 

Oh, so long ago
