Paper Fleet
Charging forward
Falling back
It’s a never-ending story, darling
School and work and growing is a multi-organ effort, and it
Strains the heart
Weathers the skin
‘tween the earth and sky are sweat and skin
There’s so much pressure to live right the first time,
No do-overs
But let’s cheat a bit shall we
Start walking and you’ll find me in a
Haunting place, two baby faces
Halfway ‘tween you and me
‘cause
When I am lost to me, lost to me, lost to me
When you can’t find your dreams blown away into the storm
Rig your sails, I’ll bring my
Looking-glass
We’ll man this paper boat home
It’s hard to tell what you’re going through
It’s hard to smile when world is breaking you
Down
Right and wrong seem equally fine when
There’s so much to do and so little time
For a beautiful sunset
Or a whirlwind ride
Around sweet adolescence
But let’s cheat a bit shall we
Start walking and you’ll find me in a
Haunting place, two baby faces
Halfway ‘tween you and me
‘cause
When I am lost to me, lost to me, lost to me
When you can’t find your dreams blown away into the storm
Rig your sails, I’ll bring my
Looking-glass
We’ll man this paper boat home
Flying out of here
The time we hold so dear
Spins from our fingers
Clutching at thin air
There’s no more turning ‘round
We’ve gone too far and now
It’s hard to see where we’re going
When the sun is going down
But let’s cheat a bit shall we
Start walking and you’ll find me in an
Ageless place, two wiser faces
Halfway ‘tween you and me
Oh
Meet me in the middle of
New Haven n’ San Francisco
‘Carolina, somewhere deep in Chinatown
Williamsburg or Providence
It doesn’t have to make no sense
So far away but obvious to me
That
When I am lost to me, lost to me, lost to me
When you can’t find your dreams blown away into the storm
Rig your sails, I’ll bring my
Looking-glass
We’ll man this paper boat home
Charging forward
Falling back
It’s a never-ending story, darling
