Lyrics

[00:01.130] You got my heart on a string,
[00:04.010] yeah you know ya do If I ever see you again
[00:10.450] I'll be your toy on a string
[00:14.140] yeah you know it's true
[00:16.510] And I'll promise you everything
[00:20.260] I was going nowhere until you came along
[00:27.070] and brightened up my day
[00:30.010] But you were having a moment,
[00:33.570] somebody had done you wrong,
[00:36.200] there were tears streaming down your face
[00:39.640] And I remember so clearly just a few
[00:44.580] months on, I still think about that day
[00:49.200] How you did something to me,
[00:52.890] how it felt so wrong to let you walk away
[00:58.770] And I'm not one to regret
[01:01.160] but I know I'm not ready yet
[01:03.400] to stand aside and watch you slowly
[01:05.960] slipping through my fingers baby
[01:08.720] You got my heart on a string,
[01:11.280] yeah you know ya do If I ever see you again
[01:18.280] I'll be your toy on a string
[01:22.220] yeah you know it's true
[01:24.530] And I'll promise you everything
[01:28.910] One day I thought I saw you, but it was just
[01:33.100] some girl, she had hair just like yours
[01:38.340] Going out of my mind, following ghosts
[01:44.100] down empty stairways and corridors
[01:47.590] but you're there behind my eyes
[01:49.660] when I can't get to sleep at night
[01:51.910] Girl I've got to get you, girl I've got to get
[01:55.720] you in my life
[01:57.160] You got my heart on a string,
[02:00.220] yeah you know ya do
[02:03.220] If I ever see you again
[02:06.850] I'll be your toy on a string
[02:10.460] yeah you know it's true
[02:12.910] And I'll promise you everything
[02:16.790] You held my heart on a string
[02:20.220] when I noticed you
[02:22.590] Like a flower abloom in the spring
[02:26.220] You can't deny it
[02:28.340] Don't try to fight it
[02:35.030] When Serendipity comes calling for you
[02:42.470] When it comes knocking on your door
[02:46.160] You got my heart on a string,
[02:49.220] yeah you know ya do
[02:51.650] If I ever see you again
[02:54.600] I'll be your toy on a string
[02:58.780] yeah you know it's true
[03:01.470] And I'll promise you everything
[03:05.030] You held my heart on a string
[03:08.600] when I noticed you
[03:11.030] Like a flower abloom in the spring
[03:14.720] I'll be your toy on a string
[03:18.410] yes I promise you
[03:20.840] If I ever see you again
