Lisa Hannigan - Paper House

We lended our heavy hearts,
motors with broken parts,
we had a deck of cards it was a start.
We'd sit out in the sun,
and wait for our skin to turn,
you would ask for truth,
and I would look for something to burn.
Oh we walked in a hallowed place back then
the edge of Dublin, the edge of May and June.
Oh to live in a paper house again,
where we grew by the light of the moon.
Often we took the train,
the sky pacing white to grey,
when you or I would leave
and the other would stay.
We were all that we had
and breathed in each others words,
I would ask for truth and
you'd look for something to burn.
Oh we walked in a hallowed place back then
the edge of Dublin, the edge of May and June.
Oh to live in a paper house again,
where we grew by the light of the moon.
You were much younger then,
younger than I am now,
I still keep as much an eye as the wires allow,
I still keep as much an eye as the wires allow.
Oh we walked in a hallowed place back then
the edge of Dublin, the edge of May and June.
Oh to live in a paper house again, where we grew by the light of the moon.
Oh you know what you are to me
and you know you will always be



Agir kalplerimizi borc verdik
Motorlar parcalara ayrilmisti
Baslamak icin bir masa dolusu kartlar vardi
Guneste oturacagiz ve tenlermizin renk degistirmesini bekleyecegiz
Sen gercegi soracaksin ve Ben yakmak icin birsey arayacagim

Nakarat
Tekrar kutsanmis yere girdik sonra dublinin kiyisina mayis yavas yavas hazirana donerken
Tekrar kagittan evde yasamaya ay Isiginda buyudugumuz yere

Genelde trene bindik,birimiz gidip birimiz kalirken gokyuzu beyazdan griye donuyordu
Biz birbirimizin kelimelerindeki nefesiz
Ben gercegi soracagim be Sen yakmak icin birsey arayacaksin

Nakarat

Sen daha genctin benim simdiki yasimdan daha genc
Kablolarin (telefon) izin verdigi kadar hala bir gozum orda
Kablo......Orda

Nakarat

Senin benim icin ne demek oldugunu biliyorsun ve herzaman oyle olacaksin
