His face was always full of crinkly smiles
More than just a little twinkle in his eye
He said, Honey, you are my Bumble Bee...
Dream your fairy tale and you will see...
He said:
Build your castles high into the sky
I will paint them all for you and that's no lie

Smiling down there at me, my little hand in his
Now Bumble prays, with his photo, on her knees

Build your castles high into the sky
I will paint them all for you and that's no lie
I bought a boat, painted all in cream
Princess, make your wish, I'll catch your dream...
My Princess, make your wish, I'll catch your dream
Daddy will you come for me
One day for your Bumble Bee
I built the castles in the sky
Now come and please don't lie.

On a shopping trip or a visit to a friend
He left us behind, his boat sails in the wind...
