I sent a paper airplane   With my heart enclosed to you   I don't know when it will arrive   Maybe it's still over the ocean blue      I took my time to fold it    I hope you take the time to hold it close to you   You know my love is definitely true   Under every folded corner, there's a written message from me to you   I hope you keep it forever and ever      My paper airplane will sail across this sea   And land at your feet as my offering   Of my heart, my love, my heart, my everything   My heart, my love, basically my everything      The wind will guide it, but the clouds will hide it from the world   It will never ever set off course from you   It's quicker than the postal service   Nearly perfect as it hovers the surface of the sea   It's almost coming      My paper airplane will sail across this sea   And land at your feet as my offering   Of my heart, my love, my heart, my everything   My heart, my love, basically my everything      When it comes, don't rip it open   Remove the salt from the ocean   And cherish what's inside for now you own it
