Strings - Live

I met this girl when I was three or so

We were holding hands, thought someone told

And it felt like an eternity

Said it felt like an eternity

And I knew back then we were more than friends

Two sides of the story, it all depends

And I've said it once, and I'll say it again

It'll only end up hurting me

Years flew by I was less than twelve

Long division, I need your help

Can you come on over and work with me?

Anytime you like, I'll make it work for me

'Cause I knew back when if I get you close

When the time is right maybe I'll propose

Baby, climb on up, show me the ropes (sing it)

Darling, I want all the strings attached

I love it when you look at me like that

And you're the only girl that brings me back

'Cause baby, I want all the strings attached

It's like (always and forever)

I won't (let a moment pass)

And when I'm with you I feel better

I want all the strings, all the strings attached

All the strings attached, girl

And all the strings attached, girl, oh

So come on, girl, let me hold your hand

Let's go get lost, live without a plan

And I know you've got the world to see

But you know you mean the world to me

And I know right now you got second thoughts

Do whatever it takes, pay whatever the cost, yeah

And you know me, not the type of guy

To sneak around, to do the time

But you must have me hypnotised

I'm (d-d-d-down to be by your side), yeah

Every night, yeah

And darling, I want all the strings attached

I love it when you look at me like that

And you're the only girl that brings me back

('Cause baby, I want all the strings attached)

(It's like always and forever)

I won't let a moment pass

And when I'm with you I feel better

I want all the strings, all the strings

And when you fall down, I fall too

And if you get lost, then I'll get lost with you

And when the waves crash down

I promise I won't move

'Cause I need

All the strings attached

I love it when you look at me like that

And you're the only girl that brings me back

Baby, I want all the strings attached (sing it out)

It's like (always and forever)

(I won't let a moment pass) beautiful

(And when I'm with you I feel better)

I want all the strings, all the strings attached

And all the strings attached, girl, and all the strings attached, girl

Oh yeah

(Thank you)
