Wrapped in Brown Paper
Style: Doo wop

[Verse 1]
You handed it over, plain and slow
Just brown paper, string and all
Nothing fancy, nothing to show
But I felt the whole world stall

[Pre-chorus]
I didn't need a reason why
Didn't need a single word
Just your hands and my heart tried

[Chorus]
Flora, you're the one I adore
Simple as a counter and a door
Nothing sweeter came before
Flora, you're the one I adore

[Verse 2]
The counter's cold but you are not
You wrap things up so carefully
I watch you like it means a lot
Because it does, plain to see

[Pre-chorus]
I didn't need a reason why
Didn't need a single word
Just your hands and my heart tried

[Chorus]
Flora, you're the one I adore
Simple as a counter and a door
Nothing sweeter came before
Flora, you're the one I adore

[Bridge]
No ribbon shines as bright as you
No parcel holds what you hold true
Every small thing that you do

[Chorus]
Flora, you're the one I adore
Simple as a counter and a door
Nothing sweeter came before
Flora, you're the one I adore

[Outro]
Still that paper's folded neat
Still my heart skips at your feet
