Paper Aeroplane Lyrics

I spilled the ink across the page
Trying to spell your name
So I fold it up and I flick it out
Paper aeroplane
It won't fly the seven seas for you
'Cause it didn't leave my room
But it waits the hands of someone else
Garbage man

I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm

So he opens it up
And reads it out
To all his friends
Amongst the crowd a heart will break
And a heart will mend
He walks at home
Tired from work
A letter fall from his hands
He reaches out to catch the sky
But it's gone with the wind
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm

I spilled the ink accross the page
Trying to spell your name
Up and down
There it goes
Paper aeroplane
It hasn't flown the seven seas for you
But it's on its way
It goes to the hands
Into someone else
To find you girl

I Got to say
(To find you girl)
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
(To find you girl)
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
(To find you girl)
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
(To find you girl)
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
Hmm mm
I Got to say
Hmm
