i've got paper wings
paper wings to fly on
and i'm flying away from here
taking off at dawn.

you have 313 minutes to change my mind
cuz once i rise i won't fall
shoot me with bullets, won't matter
they won't hurt me at all
you don't know these paper wings
they're strong as true love
might look quite frail
but i swear they're tough
only been ripped once
and that was 3 years from today
when you don't come back to me
and the sun sets on that day.

i've got paper wings
paper wings to fly on
and i'm flying away from here
taking off at dawn.

sometimes i wonder why i have paper wings
when there's only one place i want to go
not across the world or over seas
but in your arms, you dreaming real slow
but then i remember those arms are crossed
it's not my privledge anymore
so i'll go across the world and over seas
and hope the wind cures my heart-war.
i'm not broken yet
maybe i never will be
maybe it doesn't matter
if you ever come back to me

i've got paper wings
paper wings to fly on
and i'm flying away from here
taking off at dawn.

i'm gonna love my paper wings
let them take me where they will
i'll be ok, i am ok.
this night air is so still.
and somewhere you're breathing
moving the air in small whisps
maybe those breaths will carry my wings one day
and give me an extra lift.
and maybe having loved you was enough
and that's all i need for today
after all i have my paper wings
and a new song on it's way.

i've got paper wings
paper wings to fly on
and i'm flying away from here
taking off at dawn.
