[Verse 1] You walked in with that shy grin And my whole world tilted fast My sneakers on the school floor Still I felt it skip and crack Your name on the edge of my notebook Next to plans I never drew Small town heart, big sky hands I kept dreaming them with you [Pre-Chorus] Now the night looks brighter When you look my way Every little promise Starts to sway Hold me closer Let the future wait We were young, we were fearless We were made [Chorus] Paper moon, stay with me Paper moon, set me free We can run, we can rise Out beyond the sleepless skies Paper moon, hold my hand Paper moon, understand Young love burns, young love dreams You and me, we and our dreams [Verse 2] Hallway echoes, running late Your laugh cuts through the noise I was half a hidden wish Till you turned me into choice I saw gold inside the ordinary In your jacket, in your eyes Every corner of tomorrow Looked less scary by your side [Pre-Chorus] Now the night looks brighter When you look my way Every little promise Starts to sway Hold me closer Let the future wait We were young, we were fearless We were made [Chorus] Paper moon, stay with me Paper moon, set me free We can run, we can rise Out beyond the sleepless skies Paper moon, hold my hand Paper moon, understand Young love burns, young love dreams You and me, we and our dreams [Bridge] If the world gets cold We’ll make our own light If the road bends hard We’ll bend tonight Tell me you still feel it When the crowd fades out I don’t need forever Just this now [Final Chorus] Paper moon, stay with me Paper moon, set me free We can run, we can rise Out beyond the sleepless skies Paper moon, hold my hand Paper moon, understand Young love burns, young love dreams You and me, we and our dreams Paper moon, stay with me Paper moon, never leave Young love burns, young love dreams You and me, we and our dreams
