Will Linley - On Paper lyrics

You hate star signs and so do I
Were extroverts and hate to be alone
Always too scared to open up
Cause, we've been hurt before
And given up on love

Everybody else around us
Says we're too alike you and I
But, maybe similar things
Can attract sometimes we don't work on paper
But, I can read between the lines

You know how to speak my language
When I don't have the words to write
The way you push and pull me
It makes me lose my mind
But, baby I'm not complaining
That we don't work on paper

We don't work on paper

We both long for affection
But when feelings show up we tend to run

We hide behind irrational insecurities
And laugh through it all so nobody sees
We both lie when it gets too much

Everybody else around us
Says we're too alike you and I
But, maybe similar things
Can attract sometimes we don't work on paper
But, I can read between the lines

You know how to speak my language
When I don't have the words to write
The way you push and pull me
It makes me lose my mind
But, baby I'm not complaining
That we don't work on

They may say that we're too young
Wasted and reckless and dumb
But even though it could get ugly
Just promise that you'll still love me
They may be right but, I don't care

We don't work on paper
But, I can read between the lines
You know how to speak my language
When I don't have the words to write
The way you push and pull me
It makes me lose my mind
But, baby I'm not complaining
That we don't work on paper
