Paper Door from Wildcard by Catherine Clarnette

Do you remember when the two of you met?
You said you didn't wanna get involved
But soon enough, you lost your common sense
Thinking you're the one who's in control
​
All our words become invisible
We'll trust him to be predictable
​
Cut out your paper stars, stick them on your wall
And soon he'll turn up at your paper door
He will say and say he's here to stay
But he will walk away because he could before
Because he could before
​
Do you remember the first time he left
Only to turn around and change his mind?
Refill your heart with his promises
Convince yourself it will be different this time
​
Justify it's in the circumstance
He deserves another second chance
​
Cut out your paper stars, stick them on your wall
And soon he'll turn up at your paper door
He will say and say he's here to stay
But he will walk away because he could before
Tear up your paper dreams, watch the pieces fall
Wait for him to pull you from the floor
He will cry and cry he's here to fight
But only for tonight just because he could before
​
Keep you dreaming 'bout tomorrow (you know, you know)
Keep you believing what you wanna (I know, I know)
Time to move on, time to move on
Take back your love, take back your love
​
Tear up your paper dreams, watch the pieces fall
Wait for him to pull you from the floor
Question why and why he has to lie
But he won't have a reply, just always leave you wanting more
Cut out your paper stars, stick them on your wall
And soon he'll turn up at your paper door
He will say and say he's here to stay
But he will walk away because he could before
​
He'll return again, walk through your paper door
