Paper Skyline (Version 2)

Verse

Dusty vinyl on a milk crate shelf

Piano keys worn down to a feel that never sells

Bass line low like a memory's hum

Streetlight shadows stretching long and thin

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the city start to sigh

Every window turning gold at twilight

Chorus

Paper skyline catching fire at dusk

Skyline of memories, we're not done yet, just

Burning every page that won't let go

Paper sky tonight, and we're still glow

Verse

Old typewriter rattling out a lullaby

Coffee cup ring where the sun used to lie

Neon signs blinking out one by one

But I keep singing till the morning's come

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the city start to sigh

Every window turning gold at twilight

Chorus

Paper skyline catching fire at dusk

Skyline of memories, we're not done yet, just

Burning every page that won't let go

Paper sky tonight, and we're still glow

Bridge

Maybe this is how the whole thing ends

Ash on my shoes but I'm dancing with friends

The wind takes a building, lets it drift away

I'll hold onto the shape of yesterday

Chorus

Paper skyline catching fire at dusk

Skyline of memories, we're not done yet, just

Burning every page that won't let go

Paper sky tonight, and we're still glow
