paper walls

Singer:cohn, marc

well

i had just checked in when the sun came up

after ten hours on the bus. i was staring at the stains on the ceiling

baby

trying not to think about us. but then someone in a room five-oh two

started doing the thing that we used to do. every bang

every boom

it was just like it was happening in my own room. 'cause they've got paper walls

paper walls

paper walls. ooh

yeah. i closed the curtain

i shut the light

i heard the highway moan. next thing i remember they were having a fight

and then

she was all alone. i heard her cry in the darkest hour

i heard it echo in the hotel shower

i heard her start packing her things

so

i called her number and i heard it ring. right through the paper walls

paper walls

paper walls

oooh yeah

now. i've never seen such a sight before

the way she looked when she opened the door. hush now baby don't make a sound

when all your love comes a-tumblin' down. just like a paper wall

paper wall

paper wall

ooh just like a paper wall. it ain't the road that kills you

baby

it's the all night calls;

it ain't the road that kills you

baby

it's just the paper walls
