Paper Mansions
Don't build for me paper mansions that only stand until you've goneYou paint the nastiest futures of anyone I knowYou always leave me holding on to pretty words that glowYou've built a thousand mansions out of dreams that seem so strongBut they're always made of paper not of stoneDon't build for me paper mansions that I can never call my ownFor love can't live in paper mansions that only stand until you've goneYou always been a dreamer dear and I'm a dreamer tooBut I guess I've had too many of the kind that don't come trueSo don't build me no mansions with paper walls so thinThat only stand until you leave againDon't build for me From Letras Mania
