Paper Hearts

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You said my name like rain On a cracked front step I kept your note in my coat Till the ink went wet I tried to act fine But you knew the truth You left a mark on me Like a thumbprint in glue [Pre-Chorus] Now every room feels small When your shadow comes through I swear I hear it all When I’m passing your door [Chorus] Paper hearts, paper hearts You tore me clean apart Paper hearts, paper hearts Still beating in the dark If you come back, don’t lie If you stay, don’t run Paper hearts, paper hearts We were made to burn young [Verse 2] Your hoodie on my chair Still smells like the train The one we missed in June When it started to rain I laughed too hard that night You looked at me slow Like you already knew I’d be the last to go [Pre-Chorus] Now every street feels wrong When your shadow comes through I swear I hear it all When I’m passing your door [Chorus] Paper hearts, paper hearts You tore me clean apart Paper hearts, paper hearts Still beating in the dark If you come back, don’t lie If you stay, don’t run Paper hearts, paper hearts We were made to burn young [Bridge] [Half-time] Hold me down Or let me fade I don’t need gold I need your name One more chance One more spark Say it soft Before we fall apart [Chorus] Paper hearts, paper hearts You tore me clean apart Paper hearts, paper hearts Still beating in the dark If you come back, don’t lie If you stay, don’t run Paper hearts, paper hearts We were made to burn young
