Sandcastles Lyrics – Beyoncé

[Verse 1: Beyoncé]
We built sandcastles that washed away
I made you cry when I walked away, oh
And although I promised that I couldn't stay, baby
Every promise don't work out that way, oh, babe
Every promise don't work out that way

[Verse 2: Beyoncé]
Dishes smashed on my counter from our last encounter
Pictures snatched out the frame
B!tch, I scratched out your name and your face
What is it about you that I can't erase, baby?
When every promise don't work out that way
No, no, babe
When every promise don't work out that way

[Verse 3: Beyoncé]
And your heart is broken 'cause I walked away
Show me your scars and I won't walk away, oh
And I know I promised that I couldn't stay, baby
Every promise don't work out that way
No, no, no, no, no
Every promise don't work out that way
