Lyrics:
Verse 1

The whole world's always building
Castles in Spain;
When sunshine is streaming,
Then ev'ryone's dreaming, scheming.
When you find that you have
Builded in vain,
There's one thing to do:
Start building anew.

Refrain 1

There's no use sighing,
There's no use crying,
When all your castles come tumbling down.
But just remember,
>From day to day,
That after bleak December,
There's sunny May.
When fears assail you
And friends all fail you,
Just dare to smile and hide your frown.
There's no use sighing,
There's no use crying,
When all your castles come tumbling down.

Verse 2

The Pollyanna way of thinking
Is, oh
So easy to swallow,
But terribly hard to follow.
When they call the castle mortgage,
You know,
That even in spring,
One hardly can sing.

Repeat Refrain
