Lyrics

Paper Windows

Diamonds are supposed to be forever.
Well, I don't know but you said you'd settle for a tin foil ring and a twist tie.
Maybe it'll be a big white house with some kids and a swimming pool,
or maybe it'll be a shack with the toilet out back and paper windows.
I don't care much 'cause we're staying in touch and that's all I can ask for now.

It's not all that often that I fall for a girl who's got blue hair.
It's stubbly and black and the green is intact and I don't care.
No, I don't care much 'cause your magic is such that I'm wanting you all the time.

You are different from everyone else, I really mean it.
I bet you've been around the block as many times as me.
Hell, I bet you even had the nerve to cross the street.
So I hope you never leave. I hope you never ever leave me. Please.

I don't care much if you call it a crutch, I just want you to hang around with me much.
And gently we'll touch. I just want you to hang around.
