Paper Mansions Lyrics - Jean Shepard

Don't build for me paper mansions that only stand until you've gone 

You paint the nicest futures of anyone I know 

You always leave me holding on to pretty words that glow 

You've built a thousand mansions out of dreams that seem so strong 

But they're always made of paper not of stone 

Don't build for me paper mansions that I can never call my own 

For love can't live in paper mansions that only stand until you've gone 

 

You always been a dreamer dear and I'm a dreamer too 

But I guess I've had too many of the kind that don't come true 

So don't build me no mansions with paper walls so thin 

That only stand until you leave again 

Don't build for me...
