[Verse 1] You leave a seam in my hand Like a match in a silk dress I trace the shape of your laugh On a napkin, on my chest Paper moon on the wall Keeps falling when you call [Pre-Chorus] And I try to act fine But the thread pulls tight Your name in my mouth Like a spark in the night [Chorus] Paper moon, paper moon Hold me up, hold me up Pins and needles, pins and needles I can’t get enough Paper moon, paper moon Don’t let go, don’t let go Pins and needles, pins and needles Baby, take me slow [Verse 2] Your jacket on my chair Still smells like winter rain I fold it into the dark Then I wear it like a name Every small thing you touch Turns electric on my skin [Pre-Chorus] And I try to act fine But the thread pulls tight Your name in my mouth Like a spark in the night [Chorus] Paper moon, paper moon Hold me up, hold me up Pins and needles, pins and needles I can’t get enough Paper moon, paper moon Don’t let go, don’t let go Pins and needles, pins and needles Baby, take me slow [Bridge] If you come back around Don’t come quiet, don’t come cold Bring that shake in my bones Bring that light you stole I’ve been waiting in the hush For your hand to find my pulse [Chorus] Paper moon, paper moon Hold me up, hold me up Pins and needles, pins and needles I can’t get enough Paper moon, paper moon Don’t let go, don’t let go Pins and needles, pins and needles Baby, take me slow
