Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Today in class
I watched you pass
The clock tick-tocked
My heart just locked
[Pre-chorus]
La la la, la la
(La la la, mmm)
[Chorus]
Why do my hands shake when you pass notes?
Why does time stop when you sit close?
[Verse 2]
Folded squares
In perfect pairs
Your pencil marks
Leave lasting sparks
The bell rings on
But I'm drawn to you
[Pre-chorus]
La la la, la la
(La la la, mmm)
[Chorus]
Why do my hands shake when you pass notes?
Why does time stop when you sit close?
[Bridge]
[Orchestral swell]
(Ooh, ah-ah, ooh)
Paper planes in spring rain
Floating by, can't explain
Why my pulse runs wild
Like a startled child
[Verse 3]
Simple words
Like singing birds
Float through air
Should I dare?
To write back now
Or wait somehow
[Pre-chorus]
La la la, la la
(La la la, mmm)
[Chorus]
Why do my hands shake when you pass notes?
Why does time stop when you sit close?
[Outro]
(La la la, soft and slow)
Paper planes, let them go
(Mmm, ah-ah)
