Story Behind the Song
So there was this sweet christian girl, and I thought she pretty alright, and she didn't gave me the time of day. Well actually, once, she asked me if I noticed anything different about her.
she changed her eye shadow a little. duh.
Lyrics
I’m not much for sad songs, I don’t remember why
You won’t understand this, but I am so in love with your eyes
I’m sorry to be so trite
And I don’t communicate
But I don’t think you listen when I say hello
There are days when I can do anything
And I’d do anything just to know you
There are days when I am blinking and I’m fumbling
These winds are moving faster, these winds are moving faster
I’m a paper kite and here’s my hole.
I’ve romanticized this, but that’s the way I am.
You won’t understand this, but you’re an angel at 4:00 AM
And I’m sorry to be so lame
And I’m sorry I stay up late
And I’m sorry I wrote this stupid song for you.
There are days when I can’t do anything
And I’d lose it all if I could hold you
There are days when I am blinking and I’m fumbling
These winds are moving faster, these winds are moving faster
I’m a paper kite and here’s my hole.
You won’t dance because you don’t hear the music-
But I can’t tune it out.
And I’m not much for sad songs, but you’re what this one’s about
So here’s to us, and all we never were.
I’m a paper kite and here’s my hole.
Up against the wind, here I go,
I’m a paper kite and here’s my whole, big, foolish heart.
