Paperboy

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

I need someone a little stronger
Who's gonna stick around longer
And when the storm gets louder
They can stand their ground and
Take my hand and stand together
Not get swept up with the weather, no, no

'Cause paper hands can't hold me
And a paper heart can't love me
Can't put my faith in something that just folds
Paper words sound pretty
But they don't mean nothing to me
'Cause every time it rains I watch them go

My love is fire and lightning
So I'll avoid you Paperboy

Paper planes 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

'Cause paper hands can't hold me
And a paper heart can't love me
Can't put my faith in something that just folds
Paper words sound pretty
But they don't mean nothing to me
'Cause every time it rains I watch them go

My love is fire and lightning
So I'll avoid you Paperboy

We're made to tear and to burn and
To crumble with hurt and
You say that you love me
The wind blows, then you leave

'Cause paper hands can't hold me
And a paper heart can't love me
Can't put my faith in something that just folds
Paper words sound pretty
But they don't mean nothing to me
'Cause every time it rains I watch them go

(Watch them go)
'Cause paper hands can't hold me
And a paper heart can't love me
Can't put my faith in something that just folds
Paper words sound pretty
But they don't mean nothing to me
'Cause every time it rains I watch them go

My love is fire and lightning
So I'll avoid you Paperboy
My love is fire and lightning
So I'll avoid you Paperboy
