paper stars Lyrics

Have you ever slept

'Till the afternoon

When the sun is shining

And the day is no longer new?

Have you ever stayed awake

Until the night rolls in

And you're left just thinking

What, and why, and

How am I supposed to live like this?

Let me remind you

We'll make 10,000 paper stars

And they'll

Be reminders that

We'll make it out alive

Cause you are

Exactly what

I've been looking for

Don't leave me now

I know you find it hard to say 'hello'

But live a little longer and I can

Show you the world

Through someone else's eyes

We can fall in love

With the stars and each other

As we kiss in the dark

And fantasise a future

We can live with a dog

And three-hour breakfasts

Oh, I know you're finding it hard

To find a purpose but

I don't think it's worth it

We've got bigger tasks at hand

We'll make 10,000 paper stars

And they'll

Be reminders that

We'll make it out alive

Cause you are

Exactly what

I've been looking for

Don't leave me now, now

Don't leave me now
