[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] We folded paper boats at noon And sailed them down the gutter We didn't know they'd sink so soon We didn't care — we made another [Verse 2] The rain came down, the street turned wide The boats went fast, the boats went far We ran beside them, side by side And never wondered where they are [Chorus] Paper boats, paper boats Floating down the street Paper boats, paper boats Sinking when they meet the heat [Instrumental interlude] [Verse 3] We wrote our names on every one In pencil, small and crooked We thought they'd make it to the sun We never looked back — we just looked [Instrumental/vocal outro] Paper boats… paper boats… still floating in my head… * * * * * * * Lyrics by Suno creator, BritPap
