Lyrics
Paper Year
Words & Music by Chad Thevenot
She, she's coming home
under the cover
where she says she belongs
And I, I'm on her side
keeping the bed warm
until she arrives
My Dear, it's been a crazy paper year
The world outside's been hazy
but our world is so clear
And, I've got Luck here beside me
So close to perfection
if only you were near
The hand that turns heaven's gears
holds us in this paper year
So, come on, let's go out tonight
and get lost in Venice alleys
until we get tired
Oh, it must be some kind of miracle
the grapes on the hillside
turn water into wine
CHORUS
She's coming back home
my angel from heaven . . . heaven tonight
CHORUS
She's coming home . . .
