Origami by Obi Best Lyrics
I met you
Across the world
Small conversation
I turned into silent girl
We found a way
We made smiles and paper birds
Quiet revisions
Colored squares
Outnumbered words
Nighttime falls
Flimsy paper animals
Don't smooth the creases, you say
Your mistakes are beautiful
Now I'm back home
You don't write letters, you never phone
I almost gave up hope
Until one day an envelope
Can I love you this way?
Can it be true?
Paper cranes and daisies
Say "I love you"
And people may say
What they will too
Who cares?
You care
My life's alright, I guess
It's just it's rather black and white
I know there's blue and red to see
I know there's yellow, it waits for me
What's at my door?
I lay the contents on my floor
Elephants, one red and blue
A frog, a duck with love from you
Can I love you this way?
Can it be true?
Paper cranes and daisies
Say "I love you"
And people may say
What they will too
Who cares?
Do you care?
Do you care?
Are you scared?
Oh, do you care?
I met you
Across the world
I left you
Across the world
Across the world
Small conversation
I turned into silent girl
We found a way
We made smiles and paper birds
Quiet revisions
Colored squares
Outnumbered words
Nighttime falls
Flimsy paper animals
Don't smooth the creases, you say
Your mistakes are beautiful
Now I'm back home
You don't write letters, you never phone
I almost gave up hope
Until one day an envelope
Can I love you this way?
Can it be true?
Paper cranes and daisies
Say "I love you"
And people may say
What they will too
Who cares?
You care
My life's alright, I guess
It's just it's rather black and white
I know there's blue and red to see
I know there's yellow, it waits for me
What's at my door?
I lay the contents on my floor
Elephants, one red and blue
A frog, a duck with love from you
Can I love you this way?
Can it be true?
Paper cranes and daisies
Say "I love you"
And people may say
What they will too
Who cares?
Do you care?
Do you care?
Are you scared?
Oh, do you care?
I met you
Across the world
I left you
Across the world
