Pretty Paper — Chris Isaak

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue Wrap your presents to your darling from you Pretty pencils to write "I love you" Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue

Crowded street, busy feet hustle by him Downtown shoppers, Christmas is nigh There he sits all alone on the sidewalk He's just hoping he won't pass him by

Should I stop? Better not, much too busy I'm in a hurry, my how time does fly And in the distance the ringing of laughter And in the midst of the laughter he cries

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue Wrap your presents to your darling from you Pretty pencils to write "I love you" Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
