Every whispered word you spoke
Felt like a feather-light brushstroke
On the paintings my heart hoped
Would come to life someday
All the plans we dreamed about
We'd imagine them out loud
All in colour oh but now
I watch them fade away
O-o-o oh if I was only losing you
Goodbye, wouldn't be so brutal
It would be almost easy
But, we built castles in the clouds
We planned, a thousand futures out
Now you're, packing up and leaving
With every dream, that never came true
O-o-o oh wish I was only losing you
Your whole family are friends
Don't know what I'll do without them
That perfect dress that I will never wear
The nights that we will never share
The laughter that you used to save for me
Oh oh ohh if I was only losing you
Goodbye, wouldn't be so brutal
It would be almost easy
But, we built castles in the clouds
We planned, a thousand futures out
Now you're, packing up and leaving
With every dream, that never came true
Oooh wish I was only losing you
The girl I was with you, was my best self
Now I'm watching her become someone else
If I was only losing you
Goodbye wouldn't be so brutal
It would be almost easy
But, we built castles in the clouds
We planned a thousand futures out
Now you're packing up and leaving
With every dream that never came true
Every dream that never came true
Oooh wish I was only losing you
Felt like a feather-light brushstroke
On the paintings my heart hoped
Would come to life someday
All the plans we dreamed about
We'd imagine them out loud
All in colour oh but now
I watch them fade away
O-o-o oh if I was only losing you
Goodbye, wouldn't be so brutal
It would be almost easy
But, we built castles in the clouds
We planned, a thousand futures out
Now you're, packing up and leaving
With every dream, that never came true
O-o-o oh wish I was only losing you
Your whole family are friends
Don't know what I'll do without them
That perfect dress that I will never wear
The nights that we will never share
The laughter that you used to save for me
Oh oh ohh if I was only losing you
Goodbye, wouldn't be so brutal
It would be almost easy
But, we built castles in the clouds
We planned, a thousand futures out
Now you're, packing up and leaving
With every dream, that never came true
Oooh wish I was only losing you
The girl I was with you, was my best self
Now I'm watching her become someone else
If I was only losing you
Goodbye wouldn't be so brutal
It would be almost easy
But, we built castles in the clouds
We planned a thousand futures out
Now you're packing up and leaving
With every dream that never came true
Every dream that never came true
Oooh wish I was only losing you
