Paper Airplane Lyrics

I watched you fly as a symbol of love

But now you just fly away as a goodbye

My bad intentions weren't bad enough

To push you away so I walked out of your life

I had to fly away from you

Fly away from you

I hate that you were like a paper airplane

I folded you up and off I sent

And if it's true that I was meant for you

Then I hope we never meet again

I threw you away with careless hands

And I never cared to watch you land

And I hate to say I wasn't meant to stay

So maybe it's time to fly away from you

I flew so carefree and so light

But now I feel so heavy from the weight of our fights

And it's ok if this is my final flight

At least I didn't steer you towards a safety light no

I flew you away from me

I hate that you were like a paper airplane

I folded you up and off I sent

And if it's true that I was meant for you

Then I hope we never meet again

I threw you away with careless hands

And I never cared to watch you land

And I hate to say I wasn't meant to stay

So maybe it's time to fly away from you

Maybe it's true

The things I would do

Just to save you

But I'm running out of fuel

Maybe it's me

But you fold and you leave

And you never see

That I couldn't breathe

I hate that you were like a paper airplane

I folded you up and off I sent

And if it's true that I was meant for you

Then I hope we never meet again

I threw you away with careless hands

And I wish I had the heart to watch you land

And I hope to say I was meant to stay

So maybe it's time to fly back towards you

We were just paper airplanes

But we crumbled and dissolved in the rain

I flew away from you
