Track Insight / Lyrics
Kid's hand gently cradles it now
A fragile hope on this subway how
Empty car, neon glow
His dream in flight, nobody knows
Adrift in crowds, alone and free
Paper wings, where will it be
Tossed by the breeze of the past
Where's home for a dream that won't last
Paper planes take to the night
In the shadows, a silent flight
Heartbeats echoing down the track
Wishing on wings that may crack
Ghosts of the city, always in flight
Distant horns in the hollow night
His plane glides through the darkened air
Searching for purchase, a love to share
Adrift in crowds, alone and free
Paper wings, where will it be
Tossed by the breeze of the past
Where's home for a dream that won't last
Paper planes take to the night
In the shadows, a silent flight
Heartbeats echoing down the track
Wishing on wings that may crack
Bassline roll, horns on fire
Stirring the heart, desire
Under neon, between the lines
A moment's beauty, joined with kind
Then he'll let it go, as it must
To heal in the hands of the past
Paper planes take to the night
In the shadows, a silent flight
Heartbeats echoing down the track
Wishing on wings that may crack
The last train's wheels on the tracks
His plane, a ghost, fades back
In the morning, a wiser soul
With love as his compass, making whole
