Paper Hearts
P
Peter Tawo
pop
and a polished
octave vocals
Pop with glossy four-on-the-floor kick
springy synth bass
and bright handclaps; verse keeps it intimate with clipped guitar stabs and sparse pads
pre-chorus rises with stacked harmonies and a filtered lift
chorus opens wide with punchy snare
and a chantable hook. Use delay throws on the last word of each chorus line
little reverse-swell transitions
radio-bright mix with close-mic lead vocals and airy doubles.

Letra
[Verse 1]
You came in late with a grin
Mud on your shoes again
Held out your hand like a spark
And I let it hit my heart
My phone went cold in my palm
I forgot the world went on
You said my name like a dare
Now it's still hanging there
[Pre-Chorus]
And I was trying to play it cool
But you looked right through
One little smile and I'm gone
Baby, I'm gone
[Chorus]
Paper hearts, we fold
Then you pull me close
Paper hearts, we burn
Still I want that turn
You got me, you got me
Right where I fall
Paper hearts, we fold
And I want it all
(Paper hearts)
[Verse 2]
Sunday rain on the glass
Your laugh in the corner booth
You stole the last of my fries
Like you knew I’d let you through
Now every street feels new
If you’re the one by my side
I keep a little room
For the way you look at me alive
[Pre-Chorus]
And I was trying to play it cool
But you looked right through
One little smile and I'm gone
Baby, I'm gone
[Chorus]
Paper hearts, we fold
Then you pull me close
Paper hearts, we burn
Still I want that turn
You got me, you got me
Right where I fall
Paper hearts, we fold
And I want it all
(Paper hearts)
[Bridge]
If this is risky, let it be
I’d rather shake than never see
Your name beside mine
One more time
[Final Chorus]
Paper hearts, we fold
Then you pull me close
Paper hearts, we burn
Still I want that turn
You got me, you got me
Right where I fall
Paper hearts, we fold
And I want it all
(Paper hearts)
Paper hearts, we fold
And I want it all
You came in late with a grin
Mud on your shoes again
Held out your hand like a spark
And I let it hit my heart
My phone went cold in my palm
I forgot the world went on
You said my name like a dare
Now it's still hanging there
[Pre-Chorus]
And I was trying to play it cool
But you looked right through
One little smile and I'm gone
Baby, I'm gone
[Chorus]
Paper hearts, we fold
Then you pull me close
Paper hearts, we burn
Still I want that turn
You got me, you got me
Right where I fall
Paper hearts, we fold
And I want it all
(Paper hearts)
[Verse 2]
Sunday rain on the glass
Your laugh in the corner booth
You stole the last of my fries
Like you knew I’d let you through
Now every street feels new
If you’re the one by my side
I keep a little room
For the way you look at me alive
[Pre-Chorus]
And I was trying to play it cool
But you looked right through
One little smile and I'm gone
Baby, I'm gone
[Chorus]
Paper hearts, we fold
Then you pull me close
Paper hearts, we burn
Still I want that turn
You got me, you got me
Right where I fall
Paper hearts, we fold
And I want it all
(Paper hearts)
[Bridge]
If this is risky, let it be
I’d rather shake than never see
Your name beside mine
One more time
[Final Chorus]
Paper hearts, we fold
Then you pull me close
Paper hearts, we burn
Still I want that turn
You got me, you got me
Right where I fall
Paper hearts, we fold
And I want it all
(Paper hearts)
Paper hearts, we fold
And I want it all
