Paper Promises

Paper promises
Little love letters sealed with a kiss
Tell me you're not around, to let me down again like this
And if you only knew
How my love is tried and true
My heart needs more than this
Your paper promises

I opened up my eyes this morning
But you were gone again
I look outside and leaves are falling, like
Tiny hearts in the wind
Falling down, all around you
I watch you walk away
That's when I saw the note on the pillow you left next to me

Paper promises
Little love letters sealed with a kiss
Tell me you're not around, to let me down again like this
And if you only knew
How my love is tried and true
My heart needs more than this
All your paper promises

Note number 1, said sorry I gotta run
Note number 2, said I can't stop thinking of you, and
Notes 3 and 4, left me wanting just a little more
But by note number 9, now you've crossed the Goddamn line

Paper promises
Little love letters sealed with a kiss
Tell me you're not around, to let me down again like this
And if you only knew
How my love is tried and true
My heart needs more than this
Your paper promises
My heart needs more than this
Your paper promises
