Paper Boat
Downing in your love
Struggling to stay afloat
Your affection is a stone
And my heart is a paper boat
I can't help but question your intentions
Move fast you say it's based on your convictions
Tell me I'm the girl of your dreams
But my ex said the same damn thing
I'm a little hesitant because I've been hurt in the past
My love is delicate you got to work to make it last
No embellishments I'll keep it real with you Babe
He set the precedent that's why I'm being this way
You say that you can hold it down
You want to give me everything
But I'm anchored in my own doubt
Because I don't want my heart to sink
Oh I don't want to be
Drowning in your love
Struggling to stay afloat
Your affection is a stone
And my heart is a paper boat
Nothing comes easily
Loving especially
Don't take it personally
It's just reality
Rose colored glasses make it hard to see the truth
Don't want obstructed vision after all that I've been through
I'm willing to listen while you speak your piece
But I can't promise that I'll feel differently
You say that you can hold it down
You want to give me everything
But I'm anchored in my own doubt
Because I don't want my heart to sink
Oh I'm not gonna be
Drowning in your love
Struggling to stay afloat
Your affection is a stone
And my heart is a paper boat
Drowning in your love
Struggling to stay afloat
Your affection is a stone
And my heart is a paper boat
Struggling to stay afloat
Your affection is a stone
And my heart is a paper boat
I can't help but question your intentions
Move fast you say it's based on your convictions
Tell me I'm the girl of your dreams
But my ex said the same damn thing
I'm a little hesitant because I've been hurt in the past
My love is delicate you got to work to make it last
No embellishments I'll keep it real with you Babe
He set the precedent that's why I'm being this way
You say that you can hold it down
You want to give me everything
But I'm anchored in my own doubt
Because I don't want my heart to sink
Oh I don't want to be
Drowning in your love
Struggling to stay afloat
Your affection is a stone
And my heart is a paper boat
Nothing comes easily
Loving especially
Don't take it personally
It's just reality
Rose colored glasses make it hard to see the truth
Don't want obstructed vision after all that I've been through
I'm willing to listen while you speak your piece
But I can't promise that I'll feel differently
You say that you can hold it down
You want to give me everything
But I'm anchored in my own doubt
Because I don't want my heart to sink
Oh I'm not gonna be
Drowning in your love
Struggling to stay afloat
Your affection is a stone
And my heart is a paper boat
Drowning in your love
Struggling to stay afloat
Your affection is a stone
And my heart is a paper boat
