Lyric discussion by jethro1138 

It's not "Closing my dream inside it's paper-bag".

It's:

"Closing my dream inside this paperback"

The narrative of the song is about a person flying back home. Starts off on a plane, then going through customs, then taking a taxi home and being happy to see his S/O. People used to read paperbacks on planes before we had laptops/iPods/Kindles (:
