Love Letter Airplanes Lyrics - Singles - Running Red Lights

Somewhere in New York City you are lying with new lovers 

And I'll be sleeping on that thought tonight 

Somewhere the moon is leaning into your open window 

Illuminating her in perfect light 

Tonight I'm drowning in a sea 

Of crumpled paper memories 

And my tears, like sour milk, are spilling thick upon these pages of lies of love you wrote and I believed 

So I'm flyin' love letter airplanes tonight 

Torn paper love letter airplanes tonight 

I'm flyin' love letter airplanes tonight 

Heartbreakin' love letter airplanes tonight 

6 months in New York City and I am heavy with contrition 

And as loveless as the night stand by my bed 

Down here your stars are dropping like brilliant diamond boulders 

Unloading all your wishes on my head 

Tonight I'm drowning in a sea 

Of blank paper apologies 

And my words, like dried up milk, are reading stale upon these pages 

Cause there's nothing I can say that you'll believe 

So I'm flyin' love letter airplanes tonight 

Torn paper love letter airplanes tonight 

I'm flyin' love letter airplanes tonight 

Heartbreaking love letter airplanes tonight 

"Your beauty is enduring like the bed beneath the river. 

Oh, to be a stone along your water's edge." 

Such sweet words on these pages for my pain to empty over and wonder which of them were truly meant 

So I'm flyin' love letter airplanes tonight 

Torn paper love letter airplanes tonight 

I'm flyin' love letter airplanes tonight 

Heartbreaking love letter airplanes tonight
