Those dark brown eyes and wavy hair look so fine
You wear oversized sweatshirts and tight blue jeans
And you have a necklace with a cross in it
You say my smile lights up the room but it’s yours
The way you text when you’re drunk or green
And you have this big heart of gold
No, don’t leave in this endless summer afternoon
I know you are scared but I am too
Yeah, you can go ahead and play your games
I love them and I know you love them too
I put band aids on my heart, but band aids didn’t fix things that shatter
Your voice I heard, and that sound finally made it better
Lying in my bed, thinking why I love you so much more
All my life I have been looking for a beautiful stranger to fall for
Playing my favorite songs when you’re driving in the car
Dancing to your beats and three shot of tequila in the bar
And I pause to cherish this
No, don’t blame me if we slow down
I am a little scared of these paper towns
Yeah, just be patient while I get used to you
I love the wait and I know you love it too
I put bandaids on my heart, but band aids didn’t fix things that shatter
Your voice I heard, and that sound finally made it better
Lying in my bed, thinking why I love you so much more
All my life I have been looking for a beautiful stranger to fall for
Light all these candles and come sit next to me
Let’s look up and think of the starlight you see
I wake up in your arms, not a dream anymore
What if you are the beautiful stranger to fall for ~
