[Verse 1] I found a map in a parking lot Folded in half with a coffee stain It led me past the laundromat To a shop with a gold бума? no It led me past the laundromat To a shop with a gold front pane On the counter, three paper cranes Red string tied to a plastic bowl The sign said, "Pick what the wind will take" So I slipped in a quarter And held my breath [Pre-Chorus] One for the weird little road One for the things we can't own One for the name I forgot When the rain hit my coat [Chorus] Paper crane parade, paper crane parade Lift me up, let the day behave Paper crane parade, paper crane parade I want that luck, I want that brave Paper crane parade, paper crane parade (hey) spin me round, let the dull heart sway [Verse 2] A kid in boots bought bubblegum stars An old man laughed at the candy jar The clerk wore glitter on her sleeve She said, "Some days, that's enough to believe" Outside, the wind took the bag I chased it down by the bus stop sign It rolled like a drum through the busted weeds And I swear it sounded like "Try one more time" [Pre-Chorus] One for the mess on the floor One for the knock on the door One for the part of me That keeps asking for more [Chorus] Paper crane parade, paper crane parade Lift me up, let the day behave Paper crane parade, paper crane parade I want that luck, I want that brave Paper crane parade, paper crane parade (hey) spin me round, let the dull heart sway [Bridge] If the world goes crooked tonight I'll still fold the edges right Put my name in the fold Let it fly when I open my hand [Final Chorus] Paper crane parade, paper crane parade Lift me up, let the day behave Paper crane parade, paper crane parade I want that luck, I want that brave Paper crane parade, paper crane parade (hey) spin me round, let the dull heart sway
