Paper Wings

Lyrics

Paper wings, all torn and bent
 But you made me feel like they were heaven sent
 Paper wings, not real at all
 But they took me high enough to really fall
 Your paper kisses faded too soon
 Just like a paper rose beneath a paper moon
 Paper wings, paper wings
 Oh how could I expect to fly with only paper wings
 Angels were singing, didn't you hear
 If only I'd listened close when they whispered in my ear
 Paper wings, paper wings
 Oh how could I expect to fly with only paper wings
 I tried to fly but found that I had only paper wings
