Paper Stars in the Wool

[Intro]
[Verse]
Found a ticket in the wool
The pocket was dusty and full
Lemon candy crumbs on the floor
I don't wear this sweater anymore
Ten years have quietly passed
Some things are not meant to last
But I still see your face
In this empty, quiet space
[Pre-Chorus]
Rain on the marquee sign
Your hand close to mine
We didn't say a word
Only the hum was heard
Of the projector light
Shining through the night
[Chorus]
You drew stars on the side
With nowhere left to hide
We watched the screen glow bright
In the middle of the night
Just two kids in the dark
Looking for a spark
[Post-Chorus]
Soft hums of the song
We knew all along
Now the tape spins slow
Where did the years go?
[Verse]
Your handwriting was small
Doodled on the lobby wall
We shared a paper cup
Never wanting to grow up
The ink is faded now
We lost touch somehow
But the thread remains tight
In the soft morning light
[Chorus]
You drew stars on the side
With nowhere left to hide
We watched the screen glow bright
In the middle of the night
Just two kids in the dark
Looking for a spark
[Bridge]
The banjo plays so sweet
Down this lonely street
The tape machine hums
As the winter comes
I hold the paper tight
Underneath the yellow light
[Chorus]
You drew stars on the side
With nowhere left to hide
We watched the screen glow bright
In the middle of the night
Just two kids in the dark
Looking for a spark
[Outro]
