[Verse 1] I found a map in my drawer It led to nowhere before I folded grief into squares And let it fly through the air You said, "What are you doing?" I said, "I’m not really sure" But the room felt lighter When it left the floor [Pre-Chorus] One small move And the whole day shifts Tiny hands Can make a big wish [Chorus] Paper planes, paper planes I send my trouble away Paper planes, paper planes Watch it vanish, drift and change Paper planes, paper planes I’m lighter when I let go Paper planes, paper planes Take me where I didn’t know [Verse 2] The hallway took on a glow From a crease and a throw Your laugh hit the window Like you knew where to go I wrote your name on the wing Then I crossed it out clean Some things need distance To come back as a dream [Pre-Chorus] One small move And the whole day shifts Tiny hands Can make a big wish [Chorus] Paper planes, paper planes I send my trouble away Paper planes, paper planes Watch it vanish, drift and change Paper planes, paper planes I’m lighter when I let go Paper planes, paper planes Take me where I didn’t know [Bridge] If it falls, let it If it bends, let it If it burns, let it Still, I sent it No grand speech No heavy chain Just a folded heart And a paper plane [Final Chorus] Paper planes, paper planes I send my trouble away Paper planes, paper planes Watch it vanish, drift and change Paper planes, paper planes I’m lighter when I let go Paper planes, paper planes Take me where I didn’t know Paper planes, paper planes Turn the ache into a trail Paper planes, paper planes Let it rise and let it sail
