Woke up to a sky of paper suns

Dreams that dance while the river runs

Whispers from the trees to the ocean's hum

Catch my breath as the day is won

Walking down the street with a hop and skip

Raindrops play a tune on my paper ship

Colors blend in a friendly blur

In this day I'm the only troubadour

Paper suns in the morning light

Chasing shadows from the darkest night

Listen close and you just might

Hear the whispers that feel so right

City buzz like an old school song

Sidewalks sing while the world's spun wrong

Graffiti smiles like a secret code

Unlock the joy on this winding road

Clouds paint stories on the skyline high

Birds write poems in the open sky

Paths we follow never clear or straight

Here's to life in its crooked fate

Paper suns in the morning light

Chasing shadows from the darkest night

Listen close and you just might

Hear the whispers that feel so right
