Lynn Anderson - Paper Mansions lyrics
[Lynn Anderson - Paper Mansions lyrics]
Don't build for me no paper mansions that
I can never call my own
For love can't live in paper mansions
That only stand until you've gone
You paint the nicest futures of anyone I know
You always leave me holding on
To pretty words that glow
You've built a thousand mansions out of
Dreams that seem so strong
But they're always made of paper not of stone
Don't build for me
You've always been a dreamer dear
And I'm a dreamer too
But I guess I've had too many of
The kind that don't come true
So don't build me no mansions
With paper walls so thin
That only stand until you leave again
Don't build for me
I can never call my own
For love can't live in paper mansions
That only stand until you've gone
You paint the nicest futures of anyone I know
You always leave me holding on
To pretty words that glow
You've built a thousand mansions out of
Dreams that seem so strong
But they're always made of paper not of stone
Don't build for me
You've always been a dreamer dear
And I'm a dreamer too
But I guess I've had too many of
The kind that don't come true
So don't build me no mansions
With paper walls so thin
That only stand until you leave again
Don't build for me
