Paper Wings

Paper wings
All torn and bent
You made me feel
That they were heaven sent
Paper wings
Not real at all
But they took me high
Enough to really fall
Your paper kisses
Faded too soon
Just like a paper rose
'Neath a paper moon
Paper wings
Paper wings
Oh how could I
Expect to fly
With only paper wings?
Angels were singing
Didn’t you hear
If only I’d listened close
When they whispered in my ear
Paper wings
Paper wings
Oh how could I
Expect to fly
With only paper wings?
I tried to fly
But found that I
Had only paper wings
