Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You were here
And then you left
Now there's nobody, nobody
Now they're all just second best
There's nobody, nobody
[Verse 2]
So if you want me
I'll be around
You're a bird in the water
I'm a fish on the ground
Just hold me closer
Oh won't you hold me down tonight
[Verse 3]
But if you cut a piece of guitar string
I would wear it like it's a wedding ring
Wrapped around my finger
You know what I mean
You play my heart strings
[Verse 4]
If you cut a piece of guitar string
I would wear it, this is the real thing
Wrapped around my finger
You know what I mean
You play my heart
[Verse 5]
When you're near
I feel the best
I'm somebody, somebody
It's in my pulse
It's in my chest
My whole body, whole body
[Verse 6]
So if you want me
I'll be around
You're a bird in the water
I'm a fish on the ground
Just hold me closer
Oh won't you hold me down tonight
[Verse 7]
But if you cut a piece of guitar string
I would wear it like it's a wedding ring
Wrapped around my finger
You know what I mean
You play my heart strings
[Verse 8]
If you cut a piece of guitar string
I would wear it, this is the real thing
Wrapped around my finger
You know what I mean
You play my heart strings
[Verse 9]
You're in the country
While I'm in the town
You're a bird in the water
I'm a fish on the ground
And I want to be there
For you tonight
And I hope you hear me
Baby, hold on tight
Hold on tight, yeah
[Verse 10]
If you cut a piece of guitar string
I would wear it like it's a wedding ring
Wrapped around my finger
You know what I mean
[Verse 11]
If you cut a piece of guitar string
I would wear it like it's a wedding ring
Wrapped around my finger
You know what I mean
You play my heart strings
[Verse 12]
If you cut a piece of guitar string
I would wear it, this is the real thing
Wrapped around my finger
You know what I mean
You play my heart strings
