Wrapped Up in a World of Make Believe

In this song, the narrator describes the kind of world he wants to share with his lover. A world where the two of them could completely exchange the greatest love they can ever have. The tune mentions of dreamy things that could probably take place in that world. For instance, each time the phone rings, it’s deemed that she’s the one calling. Whenever there’s a knock on the door, it’s her coming home to be with him. Everything will just be about the two of them. Although his mind is full of pretentions, he is likewise hopeful that those will come true. After all, as the lyrics say, “faith can move mountains, and behind the darkest cloud the sun can shine”.
