Artist/Band: Lynn Anderson
Lyrics for Song: Paper Mansions
Lyrics for Album: Flower of Love [Pickwick] [1973]



(Ted Harris)



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.



You paint the nicest 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...
