Oh
I was trying to think of something to say when I
went up to your girlfriend's and I pulled you away
You were so perfectly pretty and I could love every mistake
At the end of the night,
yeah,
I asked you your name
And you said, Laura,
I couldn't ignore it
The name of my own love,
it keeps * me up
But on paper,
I could write it out for you On paper,
I could draw you a picture
On paper,
I could finish any story with any ending you please
And I saw you in a dream in the morning,
so on a time I can remember
You were sitting at my kitchen table with the makeup on
Then a fire flew in through the front
door And you were so happy to see it
And you were telling me about everything you saw on tour
And I said, you know this,
I listen to your records
I keep you in my head,
yeah,
*,
you probably got a boyfriend
But on paper,
I could write it out for you On paper,
I could draw you a picture
On paper,
I could finish any story with any ending you please
I can't keep up,
always playing catch up Talking to you right now would be too much
You might tell me I got a letter written from you
It's sitting on the dresser And I can't keep up,
always playing catch
up Talking to you right now would be too much
I'm eight fourteen,
I got a letter written from you
It's sitting on the dresser
On paper, I could write it out for you On paper,
I could draw you a picture
On paper,
I could finish any story with any ending you please
But on paper,
I could write it out for you On paper,
I could draw you a picture
On paper,
I could finish any story with any ending you please
Oh,
I can't keep up,
always playing catch up Talking to you right now would be too much
You might tell me I got a letter written
from you It's sitting on the dresser
And I can't keep up,
always playing catch up Talking to you right now would be too much
You're nine fourteen,
I got a letter written from you It's sitting on the dresser
