Paperthin Hymn



When your only friends are hotel rooms

Hands are distant lullabies

If I could turn around I would tonight



These roads never seemed so long

Since your paper heart stopped beating leaving me suddenly alone

Will daybreak ever come?



Who's gonna call on Sunday morning?

Who's gonna drive you home?

I just want one more chance

To put my arms in fragile hands



I thought you said forever

Over and over

A sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion



These thoughts run through my head

Over and over

Complaints of violins become my only friends



August evenings

Bring solemn warnings

To remember to kiss the ones you love goodnight



You never know what temporal days may bring

Laugh, love, live free and sing

When life is in discord

Praise ye the lord



Who's gonna call on Sunday morning?

Who's gonna drive you home?

I just want one more chance

To put my arms in fragile hands



I thought you said forever

Over and over

The sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion



These thoughts run through my head

Over and over

Complaints of violins become my only friends



I thought you said forever

over and over

The sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion



These thoughts run through my head

over and over

Complaints of violins become my only friends



I thought you said forever

over and over

These thoughts run through my head
