Paper Town

Rusty doors, birchwood floors
What's not to adore?
Apple sweet scented candles
The smells too strong
But it feels wrong
When they're gone

The lights a'glow
Above cobbled stones
There's the ivy
On the wall
Remember when I got poisoned
When I was five?
I looked like I'd gotten trapped
In a beehive

Searching around this paper town
Looking for you need to see you now
Little dogs on the street
Searching for scraps
Jolly kids chasing them
Being yelled at
There's no way I could manage a frown
In this paper town

Martinelli for the youngsters
Chardonnay for busy moms
Brewskies for bantering dads
Vodka for the crazy cool aunts

Well there you are
It's been a long time
You've aged finer than
The finest bottles of wine
Walking beside
The setting sun
Slowly breaking
Into an unconfined run

Searching around this paper town
Looking for you need to see you now
Little dogs on the street
Searching for scraps
Jolly kids chasing them
Being yelled at
There's no way I could manage a frown

Everything reminds of me you
It's cutting in deep
Band aids won't fix this
Neither will the neighbours herb tips
So I'll escape for a while
Get to see your smile
Lie with you on the dandelions
Blissfully and quiet

Well there you are
It's been a long time
You've aged finer than
The finest bottles of wine
Walking beside
The setting sun
Slowly breaking
Into an unconfined run

Searching around this paper town
Looking for you need to see you now
Little dogs on the street
Searching for scraps
Jolly kids chasing them
Being yelled at
There's no way I could manage a frown
In this paper town
This paper town
In this paper town
