Paper people in a raging fireTrying to keep the cold awayTalking tangled in a thorny briarLost with nothing left to sayAlways racing for the night to hide usNever listening to the love inside usNo one ever told us we were wrongNo one said when love is weakIt may be getting strongShe searched for a shoulderAnd mine was goneDrawing pictures in the sandTrying to tease the time to stayWishing water never met the landTo wash the dreams awayTaking turns at being friends and loversHearing what we both believe from othersNo one ever told us we were wrongNo one said when love is weakIt may be getting strongShe searched for a shoulderAnd mine was gone
