Lyrics
Paper Boat
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.
You think everyones the one
You trust them to let you down
Now you`re lying on the floor
In this go and get up town
You sail a paper boat on an inky sea
Still you don`t know why you`re alone
You left him to be free
But freedom has a price
By loving him you died
By leaving you died twice
You sail a paper boat on an inky sea
Still you don`t know why you`re alone
Blow, don`t blow the candle out
No, you`ll need it to see
Through the murky hours
Till you sleep
Tell me what you know
I don`t know that much
Just when you leave you leave
You never keep in touch
You sail a paper boat on an inky sea
But still you don`t know why you`re alone
