Текст песни
[Verse 1] You left your key on the hook by the door A blue coat hanging where your laughter was before I made tea for one and forgot the second cup Sat by the window watching rain mark the glass up You said, "I need space," like it might be a street But space is this room and your shoes in the seat I almost texted, then I let the screen go dark Your name still lives in the shape of my heart [Pre-Chorus] Now I fold up the day Like paper in my hand If you come back different I think I’ll understand [Chorus] Paper boats, let ’em go Watch them drift, watch them show What we keep, what we lose What we love still moving through Paper boats, paper boats I can’t hold what the river chose If you come back, if you don’t I’ll still learn to let it go [Verse 2] I took your plant to the fire escape sun It leaned like it knew you were not the only one The basil grew wild, then it tipped to the side Like everything living has its own way to survive I wore your jacket just to smell the rain Felt a little braver, then it passed again Found your receipt in a coat pocket seam Two coffees, no sugar, and a broken dream [Pre-Chorus] Now I fold up the day Like paper in my hand If you come back different I think I’ll understand [Chorus] Paper boats, let ’em go Watch them drift, watch them show What we keep, what we lose What we love still moving through Paper boats, paper boats I can’t hold what the river chose If you come back, if you don’t I’ll still learn to let it go [Bridge] Maybe love’s a map we redraw every time Maybe both of us were caught in the tide I won’t curse the bend, I won’t beg the shore If it’s gone, let it go If it’s mine, it returns more [Final Chorus] Paper boats, let ’em go Watch them drift, watch them show What we keep, what we lose What we love still moving through Paper boats, paper boats I can’t hold what the river chose If you come back, if you don’t I’ll still learn to let it go Paper boats, paper boats Let the current take us home If you come back, if you don’t I’ll still learn to let it go
