Tangled Up Puppet - Live
There was a time that you curled up In my lap like a child. You'd cling to me smilin' Your eyes wide and wild. Now you slip through my arms, Wave a passing hello. Twist away and toss a kiss Laughin' as you go.
You used to say 'Read me a story.' And, 'Sing me songs of love.' For you were Princess Paradise On the wings of a dove. Now I chase you and I tease you Tryin' to remake you my own, You just turn away and say, 'Please leave me alone.'
And I'm a tangled up puppet All hangin' in your strings. I'm a butterfly in a spider's web Fluttering my wings. And the more that I keep dancin' And spinning 'round in knots The more I see what used to be And the less of you I've got.
You are a drawer full of make-up And rinses and things. You keep changing your moods, Like your earrings and rings. 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 But tonight while we played tag For five minutes in the yard, Just for a moment I caught you off-guard.
And I'm a tangled up puppet All hangin' in your strings. I'm a butterfly in a spider's web Fluttering my wings. And the more that I keep dancing And spinning 'round in knots, The more I see what used to be And the less of you I've got.
Now you write your secret poems In a room just for your dreams. You don't find time to talk to me About the things you mean, And what I mean is--
I have watched you take shape From a jumble of parts And find the grace and form Of a fine work of art. Hey, you, my brand new woman Newly come into your own, Don't you know That you don't need To grow up all alone.
