[Verse 1] Found a map in a paper cup Behind the laundromat door It said "turn when the pigeons move" And I wanted more My shoes were full of sidewalk rain My pockets full of odds I followed where the arrow leaned Past broken signs and dogs [Pre-Chorus] And the air felt strange Like it knew my name One more block, one more sign Then the world changed [Chorus] Paper cup fortune, take me there Paper cup fortune, I don't care If it's luck or a joke I'm still going somewhere Paper cup fortune, take me there (Paper cup fortune) [Verse 2] A woman sold peaches in the shade She laughed at my torn-up plan Said, "Every lost thing has a pulse If you learn to listen, man" So I traded her my last gold coin For a key and a lemon seed She pointed at a blue front gate And said, "That's all you need" [Pre-Chorus] And the air felt strange Like it knew my name One more block, one more sign Then the world changed [Chorus] Paper cup fortune, take me there Paper cup fortune, I don't care If it's luck or a joke I'm still going somewhere Paper cup fortune, take me there (Paper cup fortune) [Bridge] I knocked once, then the door swung wide No crown, no throne, just you You were standing there with open hands Like you'd been waiting too [Final Chorus] Paper cup fortune, take me there Paper cup fortune, I don't care If it's luck or a joke I'm still going somewhere Paper cup fortune, take me there Paper cup fortune, take me there (Paper cup fortune)
