Paper Boy Lyrics

Sitting with the lights out and TV on

Thinking of your blue eyes as I wrote this song

Not about the colour, but the way they shine

Wondering where they are and if they remember mine

As I said bye to you paper boy

Hope you write to me

Tell me of your hopes and dreams, places I won't see

Because I believe these postcard dreams aren't all we're meant to be

There's a space, a place in time, where weighted souls are free

Put our memories into pictures, and our pictures into frames

I'd be lying if I told you or was hard to walk away

But sometimes when I dust off all those boxes by my bed

I can't help but imagine what if I have never said

As I said bye to you paper boy

Hope you write to me

Tell me of your hopes and dreams, places I won't see

Because I believe these postcard dreams aren't all we're meant to be

There's a space, a place in time, where weighted souls are free

Now I'm heading to the city on a creaky train

My eyes avoid sky, in case I see your plane

My shirt still has your scent, but you're across the world

Now I wonder do you miss your paper girl

Who said bye to you my paper boy

I hope you write to me

Tell me of your hopes and dreams, the places I won't see

Because I believe these postcard dreams aren't all we're meant to be

There's a space, a place in time, where weighted souls are free
