(Verse 1)
I can feel in the evening air all the words I want to say
but I can tell as you turn to leave that they wouldn't make you stay
overhead the lights come on and suddenly I see
that glow is gonna guide you home wherever that may be
-
(Chorus)
what use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
'cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away
let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything
so damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain
-
(Verse 2)
I could watch as you fade away, but I hold on to the pain
in these arms that just let you go; on these lips that said your name
couldn't know it would hurt this hard to hear you close that door
so punch a hole in my paper heart 'cause I don't need it anymore
-
(Chorus)
what use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
'cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away
let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything
so damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain
-
(Bridge)
'cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away ...
-
(Chorus)
what use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
'cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away
let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything
so damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain
