[Verse 1]
I said, "If I make it to Rome, dear God, don't forsake me"
I'm proud, but I'm aching
I look at the ground and I'm shaking
I gave you the crown I was making
I hang in the clouds and I'm waiting
'Til they come around and they make me
Pull up my tray and my seat back
Safety is key and I see that anxiety needs that
This is Sobrieties feedback
I'm high off the day she hit me back
And told me that she liked my words
(Told me that she liked my words)
She recites Amelie, seems like their hers
('Cites Amelie, seems like their hers)
She's an anomaly, easy for her
('Nomaly, easy for her)
She said she's fond of me, I'm feeling honesty
I'm feeling honor she even responds to me
[Chorus]
I'm floating by your side
On a paper plane I ride
And we touched down
[Verse 2]
Feel her in spirit and mind and biology
Feel her in all of me, now I see
All of these years I was lonely, in fear of monogamy
Hear my philosophy: nobody's stranded
(Nobody's property, nobody's branded)
I don't know Socrates, so my apologies
Thought love was not for me and my abandonment issues
A tissue, I will not be handed
Though I've been missing you since I was handed
To mama, no armor, see, I'm a new breed of the Adam
And If you knew what I mean, I am adamant
I can be seen flying dragons
(Through all that is real and imagined)
See me in panic through volcanic ash, forty hours of travel
Thank God that we landed, thank God that we landed
And it's crazy to think we ain't touched, wow
[Chorus]
I'm floating by your side
On a paper plane I ride
And we touched down
We touched down
We touched down
We touched down, yeah
[Verse 3]
We said that we'd meet up at baggage
(Said we would leave out the baggage)
Check the TV for her status, my head for her beauty
And now she got me feeling average
I guess it's true that we all need a hand with them
My psychologist told me to manage them
For a man of my age, I must get it together
You get it? Man, age, manage them, forget it
[Chorus]
I'm floating by your side
On a paper boat I ride
And we touched down
We touched down
We touched down
We touched down, yeah
[Verse 4]
(I'm floating)
My problem is I need attention
(On a paper plane)
I tried to solve it as most do with mentions
Mentions of grandeur and/or candor
And did I mention that I'm a musician?
(Did I mention that I'm a musician?)
(Did I mention that I'm a musician?)
Sending songs over water like pigeons
Or was it pigs to the slaughter? I'm guessing
Before you were here, these were just prayers in the dark
So dark, I thought no one was listening
But there you were listening
Two parts in a pair that met in the air
The Arc de Triomphe, I'm envisioning
(Thank God that we never cut pigeon wings)
We never cut pigeon wings
[Chorus]
I'm floating by your side
On a paper plane I ride
And we touched down
We touched down
We touched down
We touched down, yeah
I'm floating by your side
On a paper plane I ride
And we touched down
We touched down
We touched down
We touched down, yeah
[Outro]
I'm floating
On a paper plane
And we touched down
