Lyrics

Paper Boats

Withered balloons and ribbons
Some kind of celebration
Came to an end and faded
Into the pictures taken

Here’s where we waaaaaatch the sunset
Here’s where we chaaaaaalk the pavement
Here’s where we burn the paper boats
Here’s where we press our faces up against the glass and watch it go

Do do do do do do do doooo
Do do do do do do do doooo

Kids in a cardboard spaceship
Fathers and treetops waving
Birds in a bright cathedral
Poems that live as people

Repeat Chorus

Do do do do do do do doooo
Do do do do do do do doooo
Do do do do do do do ahhhh…ahhhh…ahhhh

Repeat Chorus
