Sitting on the roof of your parents' house
I watch your mouth as you talk
But I don't make a sound

I'm feeling like the key at the end of the kite
And I'm trying to catch something
That I'm afraid of

'Til just like a paper plane
Caught in a hurricane
We are swept away
Into the great unknown

Your words are like raindrops falling on my hands
And my heart's blowing back and forth
Like a weathervane

And the water is rising all around
And if we don't move soon my love
We're gonna drown

So just like a paper plane
Caught in a hurricane
We are swept away
Into the great unknown
So you lean in and our lips say "Amen"
And I forget what it means to be afraid
