Castles in the SandStevie Wonder

Songwriter: Frank Wilson Marc Gordon Hal Davis Mary O’Brien

Producer: Dorsey Burnette Hal Davis Marc Gordon

On the beach where young lovers meet
You can see them there as they sit and build
Castles in the sand
Heavenly, she's so heavenly
When she smiles at you
And she helps you build
Castles in the sand

The time comes when you stop pretending
For all dreams must come to an ending
Remember what happens to castles of sand
The sea will wash them away
Oh

On the beach where they used to meet
By the sand and sea, waves have washed away
Castles in the sand
Castles in the sand
Where did they go?
Castles in the sand
Tell me, where did they go?
Castles in the sand
I wanna know where did they go
Castles in the sand
Please tell me where did they go...

Stevie Wonder

Despite losing his sight at a young age, Stevie Wonder went on to become one of the most celebrated soul songwriters of the late 20th century. His songs manage to both innovate and catch the ears of listeners of all dispositions, whilst also being big chart hits.

Incredibly influential amongst musical circles, his voice rendered modern British soul-songwriter James Morrison close to tears the first time he heard it.
