1,000 Paper Cranes

I took a piece of paper

Shaped it into hope

Folding gently at the crease

I tuck my love carefully

And when I had made plenty

I knew that they were ready

I whispered them to you

The bravest person I know

When you feel down, life feels gray

I'll set free the birds I have made

And when you look up, don't be afraid

To see a flock of stars that know your name

I'll send 1, 000 paper cranes over tonight

To dance around your bed and over your heart

I'll say that my wish my wish my wish my wish

Will be for us to never ever ever be apart

Although we started far away

Look at them fly your way

To my hero, my heroine, my happiness

Spiral clouds in the wind

Straight to your window

To your home, to my home, to you

When you feel down, life feels gray

I'll set free the birds I have made

And when you look up, don't be afraid

To see a flock of stars that know your name

I'll send 1,000 paper cranes over tonight

To dance around your bed and over your heart

I'll say that my wish my wish my wish my wish

Will be for us to never ever ever be apart

I'm making 1, 000 paper cranes

I'm making 1, 000 paper cranes

I'm making 1, 000 paper cranes

Look at them fly your way

1, 000 Wishes to fill your days

I know it's just a piece of paper

There's not much I can offer you

But know that I'm by your side

You can sleep in my palm tonight

I'll send 1, 000 paper cranes over tonight

To dance around your bed and over your heart

Granted my wish my wish my wish my wish

You know we'll never ever ever be apart

I'll send 1, 000 paper cranes over tonight

To dance around your bed and over your heart

Granted my wish my wish my wish my wish

We'll never ever ever be apart
