Paper Heart Lyrics

David Cook Paper Heart

Versus

I can feel in the evening air all the words I want to say.
But I can tell as you turn to leave that they wouldn't make you stay..
Overhead the lights come on and suddenly I see..
That glow is gonna guide you home wherever that may be..

Chorus

What use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain..
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away..
Let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything..
So damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain..

Versus

I could watch as you fade away, but I hold on to the pain..
In these arms that just let you go; on these lips that said your name..
Couldn't know it would hurt this hard to hear you close that door..
So punch a hole in my paper heart 'cause I don't need it anymore..

Chorus

What use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain..
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away..
Let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything..
So damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain..

(instrumental)

'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away...

Chorus

What use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain..
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away..
Let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything..
So damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain..
