My Paper Heart

The All American Rejects · The All American Rejects [2003]

Please just don't play with me

My paper heart will bleed

This wait for destiny won't do

Be with me please I beseech you

Simple things that make you run away

Catch you if I can



Tears fall down your face

The taste is something new

Something that I know

Moving on is easiest when I am around you



So bottle up old love

And throw it out to sea

Wash it away as you cry

A year has past

The seasons go



Please just don't play with me

My paper heart will bleed

This wait for destiny won't do

Be with me please I beseech you

Simple things that make you run away

Catch you if I can



Waiting, day to day it goes through

My lips are sealed for her

My tongue is

Tied to a dream of being with you

To settle for less is not what I prefer



So bottle up old love

And throw it out to sea

Wash it away as you cry

A year has past

The seasons go



Please just don't play with me

My paper heart will bleed

This wait for destiny won't do

Be with me please I beseech you

Simple things that make you run away

Catch you if I can



Summer time, the nights are so long

The leaves fall down, and so do I to the arms of a friend

Winter nights

My bedside is cold, for I am gone

And spring blossoms you to me
