Paper Bag Lyrics

Paper Bag lyrics

She don't run from the sun no more

She boxed her shadow and she won

Said, "I can see you laugh through these bottle caps

And this wire around my neck ain't there for fun



But someday we'll all be old

And I'll be so damn beautiful

Meanwhile I'll hide my head

Here in this paper bag

Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me

And it'll be okay

Fly little bee away

To where there's no more rain and I can be me"



Yeah, they talk about her

She smiles like she's so tough

She says, "Hey, can you talk a little louder?

I don't think my heart is broken enough.



But someday we'll all be old

And I'll be so damn beautiful

Meanwhile I'll hide my head

Here in this paper bag

Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me

And it'll be okay

Fly little bee away

To where there's no more rain and I can be me"



Some days I wade in the indigo

Singing that song on the radio

I blame these puddles on the rain

You know I gotta keep these cheeks day today

Gotta keep my cheating strategy 

And baby I'm gonna have it made





But someday we'll all be old

And I'll be so damn beautiful

So I'll hide my head

Here in this paper bag

Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me

And it'll be okay

Fly little bee away

To where there's no more rain and I can be me



And I'll hide my head 

Here in this paper bag

Cause if I can't see you, then you can't see me

And it'll be okay

Fly little bee away

To where there's no more rain and I can be me



Where I can be me . . . yeah

I can be me

Ohh

Where I can be me
