Paper Boats cover art

歌詞

[Verse 1]
All these paper boats
Names and dates along the seams
Floating in the sink
Like the childhood I still need

You said
“We’ll try again”
Smiled so hard your fingers shook
Held the pieces in your hands
Like a torn-out final page from our book

[Chorus]
I’m not ready to let go yet
So I’m folding every broken bit into a wish
If this is all the time we get
Let it hurt
Let it heal
Let it all look like this
Tears on the table
Hands that still tremble
But I see tomorrow in your eyes
I’m emotional
Hopeful
And hurting
And somehow that feels like life

[Verse 2]
Photos on the fridge
Crooked magnets barely hold
We’ve been living in between
What we wanted
What we’re told

You laugh through the cracks
Say
“We’re braver than we know”
In the echo of your voice
I hear a promise learning how to grow

[Chorus]
I’m not ready to let go yet
So I’m folding every broken bit into a wish
If this is all the time we get
Let it hurt
Let it heal
Let it all look like this
Tears on the table
Hearts that still tremble
But I see tomorrow in your eyes
I’m emotional
Hopeful
And hurting
And somehow that feels like life

[Bridge]
Maybe hope is just
Fear that stayed the night
Maybe love is just
Choosing to stay and fight

[Chorus]
I’m not ready to let go yet
So I’m lifting every shattered dream into the light
If this is all the time we get
I will carry every scar into the bright
Tears on the table
Hearts growing stable
‘Cause I see tomorrow in your eyes
I’m emotional
Hopeful
And hurting
And somehow that feels like
Somehow that feels like life (oh)
