Strings Lyrics - Dr. Hook

Strings, there's always strings, attached to the things, we think are free to take 

Lines, thin shiny lines, so very fine, but so very hard to break 

Threads, just hanging threads, weaving a web that we can hardly see 

But Oh, we feel the strings, pulling on you, pulling on me 

Strings, invisible strings, tying our wings, keeping us on the ground 

Strands, soft silky strands, takin' our hands and leavin' them tightly bound 

Vines, clinging vines, twisting they wind, covering everything 

Strings, pulling on you, pulling on me 

So tangled together, we don't want to be free 

We're hurting and crying, but trying endlessly 

Strings, there's always strings, attached to the things, we think are free to take 

Lines, thin shiny lines, so very fine, but so very hard to break 

Threads, tiny threads, weaving a web that we can hardly see 

But Oh, we feel the strings, pulling on you, pulling on me 

Oh, strings, we feel the strings, pulling on you, pulling on me 

pulling on you, pulling on me 

pulling on you, pulling on me 

pulling on you, they're pulling on me....
