[Verse 1] I found a paper cup moon Stuck to the bus stop glass You laughed like it was a clue That the whole wide day could last Your shoelace tapped out time On the cracked-up sidewalk tile We kicked through peeled-off signs And made a little aisle [Pre-Chorus] Hold on, hold on The weird stuff shines Hold on, hold on If you look twice [Chorus] Paper cup moon Paper cup moon You make the small things bloom Paper cup moon Paper cup moon I want to stay in your room (stay in your room) [Verse 2] A stray cat crossed our path With a ribbon in its fur You said every messy thing Has a secret if you blur I kept your joke in my pocket Like a stone from the shore And every time the world got loud I wanted one hour more [Pre-Chorus] Hold on, hold on The weird stuff shines Hold on, hold on If you look twice [Chorus] Paper cup moon Paper cup moon You make the small things bloom Paper cup moon Paper cup moon I want to stay in your room (stay in your room) [Bridge] Turn it in your hand Let it catch the rain Even borrowed light Can feel like a name [Final Chorus] Paper cup moon Paper cup moon You make the small things bloom Paper cup moon Paper cup moon I want to stay in your room (stay in your room) Paper cup moon Paper cup moon Yeah, I’ll believe in you
