Paper Boat - The Lilac Time

You think everyones the one

You trust them to let you down

Now you’re lying on the floor

In this go and get up town

You sail a paper boat on an inky sea

Still you don’t know why you’re alone

You left him to be free

But freedom has a price

By loving him you died

By leaving you died twice

You sail a paper boat on an inky sea

Still you don’t know why you’re alone

Blow, don’t blow the candle out

No, you’ll need it to see

Through the murky hours

Till you sleep

Tell me what you know

I don’t know that much

Just when you leave you leave

You never keep in touch

You sail a paper boat on an inky sea

But still you don’t know why you’re alone
