Paper Aeroplane

I don’t want to be your paper aero plane

I’d rather take your heart and move it on a train

I don’t want to see those blue skies

I don’t want hear the birds when they cry

Now you say I take the fun out of you

And you say that it’s purposely new

I don’t want to hear the dog cry

I don’t want to see that look

And I’ll make it up to you

I thought you knew

I don’t want to be your paper aero plane

Crashing down into your hall of fame

I don’t want to see those blue skies

I don’t want hear the birds cry

Then you go and make a fool out of me

Being wrong you know it’s so hard to see

I don’t want to hear the dog cry

I don’t want to see that look

And I’ll make it up in due time

I always do

And I fell in love with you

I thought you knew
