The Paper-hearted Ghost lyrics

Your skin was as white as the fresh fallen snow

Your eyes were so bright with a promising glow

Your lips red as roses and your hair black as coal

I would have given my life but you've taken my soul

There was nothing on you a man wouldn't admire

My heart made of paper and you've been playing with fire

I think I will never know why you chose me

But I know that I'm not the man I used to be

You knew you're my queen without realm without crown

Just one look from you turned my world upside down

You didn't want a piece of me, you took the entire

My heart made of paper and you've been playing with fire

Your heart was so hungry and I was the feed

But soon you ate your fill and now I must bleed

You loved me forever but just for a while

You've broken my heart and my life with a smile

I'd never have dreamt of you being a liar

My heart made of paper and you've been playing with fire

I told you that I couldn't live without you

You promised redemption it proved to be true

You shortened my suffering with a long knife

First she'd taken my love then she'd taken my life

Where we loved each other my bed was my pyre

My heart made of paper and you've been playing with fire

Now I'm hunting the land I'm prowling around

Or so many years I've been searching but found

Not a trace, I confess it's unfortunately true

I should be ashamed but I still do love you

There still is this damned so called burning desire

My heart made of paper and you've been playing with fire

Now you know my name as my story's exposed

Now you know why they call me the paper-hearted ghost
