Pandora - Josh Joffen

You finally figured it would work out with him

You were bound for where you wanted to go

Then I come on the scene and before you can stop

You're playing Juliet to my Romeo

And you're so surprised to come to realize

He maybe isn't who you really want

Because there's something that moves you when you look in my eyes

It feels like anything but nonchalant

[Chorus]
And I hope you never regret that you turned the key
And raised up the lid, made it easy for me
There must have been something you wanted to see,
Pandora

But something's got me bent out of shape from within
Got me feeling like a rubber band
Stretched tight and thin when you're off with him
Loose and easy when you're close at hand
And you say you love me, that I'm doing fine
I'm not making too many mistakes
But that to tear yourself free is going to take some time
I'll try and give you just as much as it takes

[Repeat Chorus]

I don't believe I'm being fooled
I spent my time in school
Now I'm bringing it home to you
This is a matter of the heart
I'm going to let my heart rule

I can see you in the sun on a beach somewhere
On a ramble through the brambles and briars
With delight in your eyes and the snow in your hair
And making love by a crackling fire
I can see you in joy and see you in tears
And in anger and what lies in between
And I intend to see you through all of these years
'Cause I love you and you know what that means

[Repeat Chorus twice]

There must have been someone you wanted to be,
Pandora
