Paper Thin

Your paper-thin porcelain skin, I know how to get right under it. For kicks is why I do it now. You tell me to love but I never knew how. Our feet hitting pavement, We spent the day in sunny California with sun kissed skin. I’m learning to forget and how to fade scars, And you let me let myself down so hard. Your paper-thin porcelain skin, I know how to get right under it. And now I just do it for smiles, We’ll never see flower girls stumbling down aisles. I’d lose my head just before that chance, But if you want we can still have a first dance. Cause I think I say things that I don’t mean, Once upon a time you meant the world to me. Your paper-thin porcelain skin, I know how to get right under it. But I’m trying to refrain, To make this not all end up in vain. Maybe I can learn to love like some people do, And you can learn to love yourself a little too. Or it is in all fairness to let this go? I guess we can try but then we’ll never know.
