Paper White Moon Lyrics

By the seaside looking in

To a tide-pool shimmering in the wind

Salt spray's bursting into full bloom

Lit by the glow of a Paper White Moon

Maybe now, now is the right time

To say what's been burning up your mind

Write it down

Oh the blank page

Now it's there it's laid bare I'm aware

Of every word you said

You said

Now I feel so alive

You've waisted all this precious time

And I'll keep turning it over

And over

And over

In my mind

You were stolen by the ocean

And now I'll leave you in the hot sand

You've been shipwrecked to the bottom

And I won't ever see you there again

You said

You were stolen from the ocean

Paper White Moon

You've been taken to the deep

Stolen by the sea

In time there might be sunken treasure

Buried in the deep

But it's not the kind that you will want to keep

You said

You were stolen from by ocean

Paper White Moon

You've been taken to the deep

Stolen by the sea

In time there might be sunken treasure

Buried in the deep

But it's not the kind that you will want to keep

You said

Drown in the deep blue sea

Yeah yeah oh

Paper White Moon

By the seaside looking in

To a tide-pool shimmering in the wind
