[VERSE] I saw your car parked under fading streetlights The wind played tricks with the edges of your hoodie You laughed, said “don’t wait up,” like it was nothing But I know the quiet hides the things we can’t say [PRE-CHORUS] And I’m just a kid with a fire that keeps on dying Trying to make sense of the mess in my mind But when your shadow hits my door, I feel like flying Even if it’s just for a little while [CHORUS] We’re just paper houses in the pouring rain Fragile, but I hope we’ll last the same I’ll hold you close while the world falls away Even if tomorrow comes to wash us away [VERSE] Your hands trace lines on a map I’ll never follow We talk about dreams like we know how to borrow Time from the sky, but it slips, and it slips so fast I wish these nights could always, always last [PRE-CHORUS] And I’m just a kid with a fire that keeps on dying Trying to make sense of the mess in my mind But when your shadow hits my door, I feel like flying Even if it’s just for a little while [CHORUS] We’re just paper houses in the pouring rain Fragile, but I hope we’ll last the same I’ll hold you close while the world falls away Even if tomorrow comes to wash us away [BRIDGE] Oh, the streets know all our secrets Every corner holds your name I don’t wanna lose this feeling Even if it’s just a flame [CHORUS] We’re just paper houses in the pouring rain Fragile, but I hope we’ll last the same I’ll hold you close while the world falls away Even if tomorrow comes to wash us away [OUTRO] Even if tomorrow comes to wash us away
