Artist/Band: Kitty Wells
Lyrics for Song: Paper Mansions
Lyrics for Album: Queen of Honky Tonk Street [1967]



(Ted Harris)



Don't build for me no paper mansions

That only stand until you've gone.



You paint the nastiest futures of anyone I know

You always leave me holding on to pretty words that glow

You've built a thousand mansions out of dreams that seem so strong

But they're always made of paper not of stone.



Don't build for me no paper mansions

That I can never call my own

For love can't live in paper mansions

That only stand until you've gone.



--- Instrumental ---



You've always been a dreamer dear

And I'm a dreamer too

But I guess I've had too many of

The kind that don't come true.



So don't build me no mansions

With paper walls so thin

That only stand

Until you leave again.



Don't build for me no paper mansions

That I can never call my own

For love can't live in paper mansions

That only stand until you've gone...
