I could never take you for granted Because you keep me so enchanted Once you see god planned it, I was your slave Now I'm feeling waves of fear that some day you'll disappear I should have never tangled with a cellophane angel Let's call a spade a spade When we're together in the shade Even the best laid plans, they slip away We're gonna lay here in the yard Hold you gently in my arms You keep me out of danger, my cellophane angel Traffic screaming by, then a baby starts to cry I hear those bullets fly, and my heart begins to sing But then I drink from your chalice And this world becomes my palace I know it's not just a dreamer's fantasy Because to me it's crystal clear I guess that I'll always will need you here So don't you be a stranger, my cellophane angel No don't you be a stranger, my cellophane angel
