You always hear the shouts from my battalion And send toy soldiers out to help me stand And when I see you hide behind these 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 everyday Godd times, bad times, it's just the price you pay But given half the chance of 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 With 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 bridesmaid 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
