Paper lanterns sway in the
midnight air
Silent whispers
ride the breeze
No one there, the ground feels cold
The sky feels warm,
my heart's a river
It's lost its form
Will you hold the light?
Will you chase the dark?
Will you find the flame in this fragile spark?
Paper lanterns rise,
paper lanterns fall
Do you see them drift?
Do you feel them call?
Broken strings hum a song out of tune
The moon's a stranger,
it hides behind June
Footsteps echo but they lead nowhere
The night is heavy,
but I just don't care
Tell me where you
go
when the stars don't show
Will you hold the light?
Will you chase the dark?
Will you find the flame in this fragile spark?
Paper lanterns rise,
paper
lanterns fall Do you see them drift?
Do you feel them call?
I wrote a wish on a piece of the sky Folded it twice,
then I let it fly
Maybe it'll reach you,
maybe it won't Maybe you're here,
maybe I don't
