Wrapping Paper by Cream

Wrapping paper in the gutter
Moving slowly, as the wind on the sea
Faces calling, waves moving

In your picture on a wall of a house of old times
Can you hear me, can you hear me
Can you hear me wandering sadly?

In the city, feeling pretty
Down an' out an' making love to you on the shore
Shattered windows, stairs to nowhere

In your 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
That they're calling, that they're calling
That they're calling, wandering sadly

Wish, I knew what you'd done to me
Turned me on to things I never knew
It's all broken, weeds are growing

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 well

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
