Love
Paper Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love
Is it everything you wanted
Is it everything you needed
Love
You
You never told me what’s on your mind
It was all I ever asked
You
Time wasting
I'm holding on to you
You
You bought me a cassette I haven’t heard it yet no
You
And I
And I’ll be all the things you ask me to
I’ll be all the things you want me to
Love
Time wasting
Unfolding out of you
It’s worthless
I’m holding on to you
I’m falling into you
I’m falling into you




I’m falling into you
I’m falling into you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Paper's song Love appear to revolve around a relationship where one person is uncertain about its significance while the other person may be more committed. The use of the phrase “Love/Is it everything you wanted/Is it everything you needed” appears to ask a question about the relationship’s purpose. It can be interpreted as a plea from one person to know whether the other person’s love is genuine or not. The next line “You never told me what’s on your mind/It was all I ever asked” indicates that the other person may be avoiding the question or not communicating their emotions effectively.


The lyrics continue with the lines “Time wasting/I'm holding on to you/You/Bought me a cassette I haven’t heard it yet no/You/And I.” Here, the persona is still uncertain about their lover’s commitment and seems to be questioning the value of the time they are investing in the relationship. The phrase “Bought me a cassette I haven’t heard it yet no” is quite significant as cassettes can refer to memories or past experiences. The persona has not yet connected with their lover’s past or memories, which may give the impression that the relationship is still new or not well-established.


In the next stanza, the persona affirms their willingness to do all they can to fulfil their lover’s desires. The use of the phrases “And I’ll be all the things you ask me to/I’ll be all the things you want me to” suggests that the persona is willing to do whatever it takes to make the relationship work even if it does not seem to be going well. In conclusion, the lyrics of Paper's song Love attempt to describe a troubled relationship where one person is more committed than the other.

Here's the lyrics :

I believe, I believe in the things you do
And I wanna believe you believe that too
All the noise in my ear that I hear about you
Pray it can't, pray it don't, pray it won't come true

I know you were thinking
Bad things when you kissed me, oh
Your tongue told me every lie
Sad song, warm occasion
Last week, swear no matter what
I'll be stretching out the time

Oh, I know that boy's gonna rip me up
'Cause he ain't that nice, he won't do right
He'll leave a nasty cut
Oh, I cry until I just dissolve
Come on watch my heart turn to pulp
Like paper (paper-paper)
Paper Love
(Paper, paper, paper, paper love)

I believe, I believe in a line so thin
There's a light, there's a light and it pulls me in
Going down, going down 'til I chip my chin
Take my head in your hands, pop it with a pin
(With a pin)
I know you were thinking
Bad things when you kissed me, oh
Your tongue told me every lie
Sad song, warm occasion
Last week, swear no matter what
I'll be stretching out the time
Oh, I know that boy's gonna rip me up
'Cause he ain't that nice, he won't do right
He'll leave a nasty cut
Oh, I cry until I just dissolve
Come on watch my heart turn to pulp
Like paper (paper-paper)
Paper Love
(Paper, paper, paper, paper love)
