Paper Sun Lyrics - Steve Winwood

Well you think you had a good time 

With the boy that you just met 

Kicking sand from beach to beach 

Your clothes all soaking wet 

But if you look around and see 

A shadow on the run 

Don't be too surprised if its just a paper sun 

Ahh Paper Sun, Ahh Paper Sun 

In the room where you've been sleeping 

All your clothes all thrown about 

Cigarettes burn window sills 

Your meter's all run out 

But then again its nothing 

You just split when day is done 

Pitching lips to nowhere, hung up on the paper sun

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Standing in the cool of my room 

Fresh cut flowers give me sweet perfume 

Too much sun will burn! 

When you're feeling tired and lonely 

You see people going home 

You can't make the train fare 

Or the six pence for the phone 

And icicles your crying 

From your cheek have just begun 

Dont be sad, good times are had 

Beneath the paper sun

Daylight breaks while you sleep on the sand 

A seagull is stealing the ring from your hand 

The boy who had given you so much fun 

Has left you so cold in the paper sun
