lyrics

i made a paper boat
and set it out on the lake
it was supposed to float
but by some awful mistake
it seemed to sink so quick
not even waiting for me
i didn’t notice it
too busy waiting for the glory

guess it’s not meant to be

next day i rise at dawn
and now there’s no room for doubt
i make another one
i’m certain things will work out
but when i reach the lake
it seems my fate has been sealed
no time to hit the brake
no time to even feel

I make another boat
things will be different this time
it’s on the water now
the birds are singing, reminds
me of a song i once knew
before you know it, it’s gone
just like the other two
how will i ever carry on?

carry on

it’s like i’m going round in circles
all of my life
it’s like i’m trapped in a loop
it’s like i’m stuck in time
i know that things will work out
i know that things will be fine
it won’t happen overnight
i’ll go a day at a time

it’s so easy to be
in a rush but instead
i’ll keep the paper boat
safe for now inside of my head

and one day
i’ll make a paper boat
and set it out on the lake
one day it’s gonna float
and one day i’m gonna make
me proud to be myself
and only for me
won’t even notice ‘cause i’m
no longer waiting for the glory

it’ll all come to me
