Wrapping Paper - Cream

Written by：Peter Brown

Wrapping paper

In the gutter

Moving slowly

As the wind on the sea

Faces calling

Waves moving

In your picture on the wall of a house of old time

Can you hear me can you hear me

Can you hear me wandering sadly

In the city

Feeling pretty

Down and out and making love to you on the shore

Ruined buildings

Faces empty

In the picture as I gaze ahead and don't see

That they're calling that they're calling

That they're calling wandering sadly

Shattered windows

Stairs to nowhere

Hear you calling hear you calling

Hear you calling as I wander so sadly

Wish I knew what

You'd done to me

Turned me on to things I never knew

It's all broken

Weeds are growin'

Wish I was going home to the house by the shore

Where you loved me where you loved me

Where you loved me loved me so sadly

Someday I'll get back

Somehow I'll do it

I'll arrive there and you'll be there to meet me

Walk together

Tread the weeds down

Kiss again in the picture on the wall

Where I loved you in the old house

Where I loved you loved you so well

Hmmmm hmmmm hmmmmmmmmmmmm
