Paper Doll Lyrics by A

0

[Verse 1]
If you think her life is perfect
You're just looking at the surface
Her image gets dressed up
To hide the flaws
Underneath her glossy skin
A life is waiting to begin
But you don't know the girl she'd like to be because

[Chorus]
She's a paper doll, dressed in pretty clothes
Standing in the spotlight, stopper of every show
And her cardboard smile
Can't be heard inside
'Cause paper dolls can only show one side
And she hopes the wind won't blow
'Cause then, all the world will know
She's only a paper doll

[Verse 2]
She longs to be a real girl
Living in a big world
Stepping up, or standing, spinning
Round and round, yeah
But if she dares to twirl into a three dimension world
She might lose her balance
And fall down

[Chorus]
She's a paper doll, dressed in pretty clothes
Standing in the spotlight, stopper of every show
And her cardboard smile
Hides the hurt inside
'Cause paper dolls can only show one side
And she hopes the wind won't blow
'Cause then, all the world will know
She's only a paper doll

[Bridge]
Why does she pretend to be
A cardboard cut-out girl
And when did she decide to sing
Someone else's song
Who made her believe
That she was no one special
Following her heart's desire was wrong

[Chorus]
She's a paper doll, dressed in pretty clothes
Standing in the spotlight, stopper of every show
And her cardboard smile
Hides the hurt inside
'Cause paper dolls can only show one smile
And she hopes the wind won't blow
'Cause then, all the world will know
She's only a paper doll

[Outro]
She's only a paper doll
