Paper Flowers (Originals) (Ft. Brandi Carlile)

Somebody never told me there's a last time for everythingEven a landslide is an openingTurning metal into goldSo the line is somebody never told mePaper flowers don't dieBut neither do they live like you and ILightning never striking twice is a lieLike good things coming when you waitTo tell the truth, I gotta sayI don't believe in yesterdayI don't wanna live forevеr, anywayFor a moment that was never hеre to stayForget about tomorrowFor just todaySomebody never told me there's a first time for everythingIt's a free fall, discoveryOn the day you get that call and the waiting is overIt all changes in the blink of an eyePaper flowers don't dieBut neither do they live like you and ILightning never striking twice is a lieLike good things coming when you waitTo tell the truth, I gotta sayI don't believe in yesterdayI don't wanna live forever, anywayFor a moment that was never here to stayForget about tomorrow (Forget about tomorrow)Just for todayForget about tomorrowJust for today (Just for today)Just for today
