You always hear the shouts from my batallion

And send toy soldiers out to help me stand

And when I see you hide behind those curtain folds

I cross the room to turn the lights down low



On common ground we'll build our castle walls

We'll build them stone by stone, and how

With more and more you know it won't take long

Where it burned orange let it burn gold



I wouldn't like to learn a lesson every day

Good times, bad times, it's just a price to pay

But given half a chance at turning back the tide

I'll stay at home and keep my boys in line



On common ground we'll build our castle walls

We'll build them stone by stone, and how

And more and more you know it won't take long

Where it burned orange let it burn gold



And given half the chance to turn the hands of time

I'm always the bridesmade

Couldn't live with myself if I tried to be the bride



On common ground we'll build our castle walls

We'll build them stone by stone, and how

With more and more you know it won't take long

Where it burned orange let it burn gold



On common ground we'll build our castle walls

We'll build them stone by stone, and how

With more and more you know it won't take long

Where it burned orange let it burn gold



On common ground we'll build our castle walls

We'll build them stone by stone, and how

With more and more you know it won't take long

Where it burned orange let it burn gold
