[Verse 1]
Another broken promise
Don't know what I expected
You only want me when it's perfect
But you're the one that always wrecks it
I'm not looking for somebody who just runs when it's not easy
No, no
Need someone a little stronger, who's gonna stick around longer
When the storm gets louder, they can stand their ground
And take my hand and stand together
Not get swept off with the weather no, no
[Chorus]
Cause paper hands can't hold me
And a paper heart can't love me
I can't put my faith in something, that just folds
Paper words sound pretty but they don't mean nothing to me
Cause everytime they erase, I watch him go
My love is fire, a lightning so I'll avoid you paperboy
[Verse 2]
Pick a place, don't fly high
Pictures fade in the sunshine
Paper chains look so strong, but these things never last long
I could love you to the letter, but it wouldn't last forever
No, no
[Chorus]
Cause paper hands can't hold me
And a paper heart can't love me
I can't put my faith in something, that just folds
Paper words sound pretty but they don't mean nothing to me
Cause everytime they erase, I watch him go
My love is fire, a lightning so I'll avoid you paperboy
[Bridge]
What makes it tear, and to burn and to crumble with hurt
And you say that you love me but the wind blows then you'll leave
[Chorus]
Cause paper hands can't hold me
And a paper heart can't love me
I can't put my faith in something, that just folds
Paper words sound pretty but they don't mean nothing to me
Cause everytime they erase, I watch him go
Cause paper hands can't hold me
And a paper heart can't love me
I can't put my faith in something, that just folds
Paper words sound pretty but they don't mean nothing to me
Cause everytime they erase, I watch him go
My love is fire, a lightning so I'll avoid you paperboy
My love is fire, a lightning so I'll avoid you paperboy
