Paper Hearts

I saw a tree in the park

Someone had strung it up with paper hearts

That night above the bridge into the city

I saw Orion

And the buckle of his belt became a plane flying

Say goodbye to all the stars

Say goodbye

Say goodbye to all the stars

I stayed in your apartment up there

Sat with you in the kitchen by the back stairs

Are you going out somewhere?

Your hair was red

I stayed behind and drank instead

And I slept against the wall beside you in your bed

Say goodbye to all the stars

Say goodbye

Say goodbye to all the stars

I remember crying that night while you were out

Back then I thought I knew what I was crying about

At least there was something I could pin it on

But years have passed

So much time is gone

And the nights seem darker as they move along

Say goodbye to all the stars

Say goodbye

Say goodbye to all the stars

Say goodbye to all the stars

Say goodbye

Say goodbye to all the stars
