Paper Lanterns lyrics

Now I rest my head from

Such an endless dreary time

A time of hopes and happiness

That had you on my mind

Those days are gone and now it seems

As if I'll get some rest

But now and then I'll see you again

And it puts my heart to the test

So when are all my troubles going to end?

I'm understanding now that

We are only friends

To this day I'm asking why

I still think about you

As the days go on I wonder

(Will this ever end?)

I find it hard to keep control

When you're with your boyrfriend

I do not mind if all I am is

Just a friend to you

But all I want to know right now

Is if you think about me too... ?

So when are all my troubles going to end?

I'm understanding now that

We are only friends

To this day I'm asking why

I still think about you

So when are all my troubles going to end?

I'm understanding now that

We are only friends

To this day I'm asking why

I still think about you
