Crumpled Paper Dreams

[Intro]
[Verse]
Dusty shelf, bottom drawer
Found a scrap on the floor
Yellow edges, ink so light
Ghost of a Saturday night
My old blue jeans felt just right
We were glowing in the light
[Pre-Chorus]
Rain is tapping on the pane
Softly whispering your name
Casio keys begin to sway
Watching colors fade to grey
I’m okay
[Chorus]
Crumpled ticket in my palm
Keeping me strangely calm
Front row of a basement show
Where did all the magic go?
Just a paper memory
Floating in a lo-fi sea
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh)
Just a memory
(Ooh, ooh)
Lo-fi sea
[Verse]
Static on the Casio keys
Memories come in degrees
You bought a shirt I hated
Everything felt so dated
But your hand was warm in mine
Walking home, feeling fine
Counting stars in a line
[Hook]
Fold it up, let it stay
Hide the ghost of yesterday
Fold it up, keep it near
Whisper what I want to hear
[Chorus]
Crumpled ticket in my palm
Keeping me strangely calm
Front row of a basement show
Where did all the magic go?
Just a paper memory
Floating in a lo-fi sea
[Bridge]
Warped and wobbly, out of tune
Underneath a paper moon
Whisper close, don't let go
Even if the tape runs slow
Slowly now
Head-voice high
Watch the years go drifting by
[Verse]
Now the room is dark and grey
Put the little scrap away
Back inside the wooden box
Turning all the heavy locks
But I still feel the heat
Walking down that narrow street
Heartbeat on a lo-fi beat
[Chorus]
Crumpled ticket in my palm
Keeping me strangely calm
Front row of a basement show
Where did all the magic go?
Just a paper memory
Floating in a lo-fi sea
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh)
Just a memory
(Ooh, ooh)
Lo-fi sea
[Outro]
