Paper Rings

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

The Moon is high

Like your friends were the night that we first met

Went home and tried to stalk you on the internet

Now I've read all of the books beside your bed

The wine is cold

Like the shoulder that I gave you in the street

Cat and mouse for a month, or two, or three

Now I wake up in the night and watch you breathe

(Ayy)

Kiss me once, 'cause you know I had a long night (oh)

Kiss me twice, 'cause it's gonna be alright (uh)

Three times, 'cause I've waited my whole life (1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4)

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

Uh, huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want

And I hate accidents, except when we went from friends to this

Uh, huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want

And paper rings, and picture frames, and dirty dreams

Oh, you're the one I want

In the winter, in the icy outdoor pool

When you jumped in first, I went in too

I'm with you even if it makes me blue

Which takes me back

To the color that we painted your brother's wall

Honey, without all the exes, fights and flaws

We wouldn't be standing here so tall, so

(Ayy)

Kiss you once, 'cause I know you had a long night (oh)

Kiss you twice, 'cause it's gonna be alright (uh)

Three times, 'cause you waited your whole life (1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4)

Ah

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

Uh, huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want

And I hate accidents, except when we went from friends to this

Uh, huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want

And paper rings, and picture frames, and dirty dreams

Oh, you're the one I want

I want to drive away with you

I want your complications too

I want your dreary Mondays

Wrap your arms around me, baby boy

I want to drive away with you

I want your complications too

I want your dreary Mondays

Wrap your arms around me, baby boy

Uh, huh

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

Uh, huh, that's right

You're the one I want

I hate accidents, except when we went from friends to this

Ah, ah, darling, you're the one I want

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings

Uh, huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want

And I hate accidents, except when we went from friends to this

Uh, huh, that's right

Darling, you're the one I want

And paper rings, and picture frames, and all my dreams

You're the one I want

Paper rings, and picture frames, and all my dreams

Oh, you're the one I want

You're the one I want, one I want

You're the one I want, one I want
