Paper Cuts (Female/R&B)

VERSE
The rules of love come with experience
Some are simple but easily neglected
And life can be so affected
When the broken rule is at your expense
VERSE
I've learned that love is like butterfly wings
They let us fly, but they're delicate things
They can bear only so much weight
And when they fail, it's much too late
PRE-CHORUS
Now I know some lovers who had it all
Until unkind words finally built a wall
CHORUS
Paper cuts don't hurt very much
But all together they do
Now they've lost the lovin' touch
That had been a dream come true
There were just too many paper cuts
VERSE
The innocent one could always respond
Some would say "just talk it through"
But that, too, could break the bond
Expression discretion is the right thing to do
Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
Now this may not seem like a very big deal
But, for them, it was the end
SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Just way too many paper cuts
