Cellophane

Sun-soaked high hopes
Wear them as my winter coat
To keep out the cold
But try as I might
I can’t hide the mysteries that you read in my eyes

But oh, no no no

Wrap my heart in cellophane
Keep it dry when it rains
And maybe that way
I’ll keep it safe from you

Masquerading
I watch the shadows play on your opaque face
But sparks fly from your cobalt eyes
And I can see through your disguises

But oh, no no no

Wrap your heart in cellophane
Keep it dry when it rains
And maybe that way
You’ll keep it safe from me

Wrap our hearts in cellophane
Keep them dry when it rains
And maybe that way
We’ll keep them safe
