[Verse 1] We drew castles in the clouds With towers leaning toward the moon Made a kingdom out of blankets And believed we'd get there soon We made promises in whispers Like the sky would always stay Soft and blue around the edges Never knowing knights dark way [Pre-Chorus] Some dreams grow to big for sleeping Some dreams simply disappear Some just hide and change their shape Somehow keep us through the years [Chorus] Periwinkle promises Written in the sky Castles in the clouds we built As life is passing by Periwinkle promises Drifting in the air A Kingdom in the clouds Like we were going there Periwinkle promises Half remembered, half still true Somewhere between blue and violet I still see a little you [Verse 2] We were sure we'd never settle Never lose the wonder then Never trade our paper kingdoms For a calendar and pen But the years can fold a skyline Till the towers fade from view Still a little bit of heaven Keeps its periwinkle hue [Chorus] Periwinkle promises Written in the sky Castles in the clouds we built As life is passing by Periwinkle promises Drifting in the air A Kingdom in the clouds Like we were going there Periwinkle promises Half remembered, half still true Somewhere between blue and violet I still see a little you [Bridge] Maybe growing up Was never letting go Maybe all those foolish castles Taught us where we wanted to go Maybe promises can change And still leave something true A little bit of who I was Still colored periwinkle blue [Final Chorus] Periwinkle promises Floating everywhere Castles in the clouds still standing If I remember where Periwinkle promises Gentle, strange and true Somewhere between what I dreamed And what I made it through Periwinkle promises Still coloring the view Somewhere between blue and violet Life keeps turning periwinkle too
