Apron Strings Lyrics - Everything But The Girl

Apron strings, hanging empty crazy things 

My body tells me, I want someone 

To tie to my apron strings 

Apron strings, waiting for you pretty things 

That I could call you, I want someone 

To tie to my lonely apron strings 

Your baby looks just like you when you were young 

And he looks at me with eyes that shined 

And I wish that he were mine 

Then I go home with my eyes

Apron strings, cold and lonely for time brings 

Thoughts that only will be quiet when someone clings 

To my apron strings 

And I'll be perfect in my way 

When you cry I will be there 

I'll sing to you and comb your hair 

All your troubles I will share

For apron strings, can be used for other things 

Than what they're meant for and 

You'd be happy wrapped in my apron strings 

You'd be happy wrapped in my apron strings
