(Verse 1)
Folded up notes in a drawer by the bed
All of the doubts that they whispered and said
They called them fragile, said they wouldn't last
Just temporary designs from the past
But I take those pages and open them wide
Flipping the script on the shadows inside
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, a spark can start a wildfire glow
Watch how the wind takes the stories we know
They thought a breeze would just tear them apart
But there’s a steel-plated drum in my heart
(Chorus)
We’re folding our paper thin dreams into wings!
Look at the magic a new morning brings
High above valleys and over the sea
We are exactly who we want to be!
Oh-oh-oh, let the sun catch the flight
Oh-oh-oh, we are chasing the light
No longer fragile, we’re touching the sky
Watch paper thin dreams learn how to fly!
(Verse 2)
Dew on the grass and the engine is on
Tracing the map where the shadows have gone
Acoustic chords guiding the wheels as they roll
A cinematic release for the soul
Every notebook page that I used to hide
Is now a passport to the world outside
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, a spark can start a wildfire glow
Watch how the wind takes the stories we know
They thought a breeze would just tear them apart
But there’s a steel-plated drum in my heart
(Chorus)
We’re folding our paper thin dreams into wings!
Look at the magic a new morning brings
High above valleys and over the sea
We are exactly who we want to be!
Oh-oh-oh, let the sun catch the flight
Oh-oh-oh, we are chasing the light
No longer fragile, we’re touching the sky
Watch paper thin dreams learn how to fly!
(Bridge)
They’re made of paper, but they hold the weight
Of every tomorrow we’re going to create
Unstoppable pages, unwritten and free
Floating right into our destiny
Yeah, look at us now!
(Chorus)
We’re folding our paper thin dreams into wings!
Look at the magic a new morning brings
High above valleys and over the sea
We are exactly who we want to be!
Oh-oh-oh, let the sun catch the flight
Oh-oh-oh, we are chasing the light
No longer fragile, we’re touching the sky
Watch paper thin dreams learn how to fly!
(Outro)
Paper thin dreams...
Look at them fly.
Up in the morning sun.
Yeah, we're just getting started.
Paper thin dreams.
