This song is a dreamlike story of love that exists only in the quiet hours of night. It captures the bittersweet feeling of building an imaginary world with someone who feels close in dreams but distant in reality. The verses paint vivid images of laughter, warmth, and connection; moments that vanish with sunrise, leaving behind emptiness and longing. The chorus repeats the cycle of hope and heartbreak: every night, a castle in the sky is built together, but daylight tears it down. The bridge grounds the fantasy in modern life, with the narrator checking their phone in vain, hoping the connection is more than a dream. "Castle Sky" is both haunting and beautiful, a reflection on love that feels real in the imagination but remains out of reach. It’s a song about longing, illusion, and the fragile spaces we create to hold on to what we wish were true.

[Verse]
Each time I close my eyes, you're there
Building castles in the sky
I reach out just to touch your face
But morning comes, and leaves no trace
Of what we built the night before
[Pre-chorus]
And I keep coming back for more
'Cause in my mind, we're something real
Though daylight shows me what to feel
[Chorus]
Every night I build these walls with you
(Ooh, with you)
Making spaces only we pass through
(Only we do)
But when sunrise breaks, I'm alone again
Starting over when night descends
[Verse 2]
Your smile appears so crystal clear
The way you laugh when I am near
We paint the sky in shades of blue
Create a world that can't be true
But feels like home when you are here
[Pre-chorus]
These hours pass by, so sweet, so dear
I know it's just inside my head
But can't let go of what you said
[Chorus]
Every night I build these walls with you
(Ooh, with you)
Making spaces only we pass through
(Only we do)
But when sunrise breaks, I'm alone again
Starting over when night descends
[Bridge]
In the morning light, I check my phone
Hoping somehow you might have known
That every brick we lay down there
Builds something real that we could share
But you're just living life somewhere
While I'm still building castles in the sky
[Chorus - Final]
Every night I build these walls with you
(Ooh, with you)
Making spaces only we pass through
(Only we do)
But when sunrise breaks, I'm alone again
Starting over when night descends
(When night descends...)
[Fade out]
Castle Sky…
Castle Sky… (Ooh-oh)
