Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I blow with the wind

I swim with the tide

I go with the grain

I'm along for the ride

But when it comes to you

I can't float away

I'm a love letter

You're my paperweight

I'm a love letter

You're my paperweight

[Chorus]

I want you to keep holding me down

Building this life in a little town

Trees so tall, roots in the ground

Thankful every day for what I found

I could go anywhere

But I want to stay

Yeah, I'm a love letter

You're my paperweight

[Verse 2]

I've had some dreams

That didn't come true

You had your plans

Some of them fell through

When we ran out of money

And thought we couldn't be saved

But I'm a love letter

You're my paperweight

Oh, I'm a love letter

You're my paperweight

[Chorus]

I want you to keep holding me down

Building this life in a little town

Trees so tall, roots in the ground

Thankful every day for what I found

I could go anywhere

But I want to stay

Yeah, I'm a love letter

You're my paperweight

[Bridge]

The heaviness that comes with you

It is the strength I hold onto

You're not a burden

You don't stand in my way

You're my paperweight

[Chorus]

I want you to keep holding me down

Building this life in a little town

Trees so tall, roots in the ground

Thankful every day for what I found

I could go anywhere

But I want to stay

Yeah, I'm a love letter

You're my paperweight

Oh, I'm a love letter

You're my paperweight
