[Verse]
You clutch your paper and your pen so tight
Writing verses under the pale moonlight
I see your shadow but not your face
Your words are running but they don’t leave a trace
[Prechorus]
You scribble love but erase my name
Draw a heart but it’s not the same
[Chorus]
We can’t be friends
No we can’t pretend
You’re ink and I’m the page you’ll never send
I’ll wait and wait till you love me again
Till you drop the paper and pen
[Verse 2]
I trace your letters like a secret map
But every line just leads me back
You fold your heart into a paper plane
Throw it high
But it falls like rain
[Prechorus]
You write of stars but I see the end
Draw the moon but you won’t ascend
[Chorus]
We can’t be friends
No we can’t pretend
You’re ink and I’m the page you’ll never send
I’ll wait and wait till you love me again
Till you drop the paper and pen
