Paperboats

Pushed out a paper boat
Into the sea
I hope your lighthouse is bright enough to read
This thing I wrote, before it sinks
Discovered a hundred years from now
In a shipwreck at the
bottom of the sea
For all it means
I mean that you don’t have to send one back
to me
I mean that you don’t have to send one back to me
I mean
that you don’t have to send one back
to me
I mean
that you don’t have to send one back
To me
Forgot my coat
And now it seems
The rain is lashing at my face and how it stings
From words I spoke
Or didn’t speak
And now this paper boat
is ferrying the seed
I hope it’s strong enough not to sink
Well we both float
Beneath the breeze
And as we swim to
wards the foam
We should share the apparatus so to speak
For all it means
I mean that you don’t have to send one back
to me
I mean that you don’t have to send one back to me
I mean
that you don’ t have to send one back to me
I mean that you don’t have to send one back To me
Down below the foam the ocean floor is covered
in our paper boats
Down below the foam the ocean floor is covered
in our paper boats
And as they break apart,
and the paper
gets dispersed
Let the currents take the words
And as they break apart,
and the paper gets dispersed
Let the currents take the words
For all it means
I mean that you don’t have to send one back to me
I mean that you don’t have to send one back to me
I mean that you don’t have to send one back to me
I mean that you don’t have to send one back To me
