Pain is blue wherever she goes
Play it cool when the music is on
You never feel it's right
When the night breaks your heart in two
There's a backbeat blues on the echoing night
There ain't no love, or maybe one or two
And I don't wanna let you down
Oh, when the drums start coming through the bar
A paper dream
It's not just for someone else
You know, it's a paper dream
When you feel so old, and you feel like nothing
A paper dream
Does it make you feel like no one else?
When the band is singing all of your life
♪
Boys are fools, and no love is on time
Girls in the movies, is it a typical lie?
Darling, can't you see?
We never know when the lights would go out
It's a big, big world, and it's nothing at all
I gotta sing what's never sung in the rain
And the silly little dream you have
It will never bring you down, you will get it
A paper dream
It's not just for someone else
You know, it's a paper dream
When you feel so old, and you feel like nothing
A paper dream
Does it make you feel like no one else?
When the band is singing all of your life
♪
A paper dream
It's not just for someone else
You know, just the way you feel
When you put the same records on again and again
A paper dream
Does it make you feel like no one else?
When the band is singing all of your life, ooh
