[Verse 1]
You’re there on my pillow
Name inked in the air
I trace your face in shadows
But my hand closes on glare
Talking to the ceiling
Like you’re somewhere in the paint
Every word is crystal
Every word is faint
[Chorus]
I’m in love with a paper heart
Folded shapes that tear apart
You’re a dream I can’t let go
But you never breathe
You never know
I reach out and I fall right through
All this color that isn’t you
Still I hold you in the dark
In love with a paper heart
[Verse 2]
We walk through empty movies
I buy a ticket for two
Your seat stays kind of see‑through
But I keep turning to you
I feel your hand in silence
Warm in the back of my mind
Crowded little distance
Perfect
Undefined
[Chorus]
I’m in love with a paper heart
Folded shapes that tear apart
You’re a dream I can’t let go
But you never breathe
You never know
I reach out and I fall right through
All this color that isn’t you
Still I hold you in the dark
In love with a paper heart
[Bridge]
Tell me
Is this madness (oh)
Building castles out of air
Or is there some small corner
Where you’re really there?
If I tear the pages
Do you disappear?
Or have you always lived
In the space behind the mirror?
[Chorus]
I’m in love with a paper heart
Folded shapes that tear apart
You’re a dream I can’t let go
But you never breathe
You never know
I reach out and I fall right through
All this color that isn’t you
Still I keep you
Every part
Forever my paper heart
You’re there on my pillow
Name inked in the air
I trace your face in shadows
But my hand closes on glare
Talking to the ceiling
Like you’re somewhere in the paint
Every word is crystal
Every word is faint
[Chorus]
I’m in love with a paper heart
Folded shapes that tear apart
You’re a dream I can’t let go
But you never breathe
You never know
I reach out and I fall right through
All this color that isn’t you
Still I hold you in the dark
In love with a paper heart
[Verse 2]
We walk through empty movies
I buy a ticket for two
Your seat stays kind of see‑through
But I keep turning to you
I feel your hand in silence
Warm in the back of my mind
Crowded little distance
Perfect
Undefined
[Chorus]
I’m in love with a paper heart
Folded shapes that tear apart
You’re a dream I can’t let go
But you never breathe
You never know
I reach out and I fall right through
All this color that isn’t you
Still I hold you in the dark
In love with a paper heart
[Bridge]
Tell me
Is this madness (oh)
Building castles out of air
Or is there some small corner
Where you’re really there?
If I tear the pages
Do you disappear?
Or have you always lived
In the space behind the mirror?
[Chorus]
I’m in love with a paper heart
Folded shapes that tear apart
You’re a dream I can’t let go
But you never breathe
You never know
I reach out and I fall right through
All this color that isn’t you
Still I keep you
Every part
Forever my paper heart
