All the strings attached girl
All the strings attached girl
Oh, yeah...
Met this girl when I was 3 years old
We were holding hands tight so I'm told
And it felt like an eternity
Said it felt like an eternity
'Cause I knew back then, we were more that friends
Two sided story, it all depends
And I'll say it once, and I'll say it again
It could 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 ya like I make it work with me
'Cause I knew back when if I can get ya close
When the time is right maybe I propose
Baby climb on up, show me the ropes
Darling I want all the strings attached
I love it when you look at me like that
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
All the strings attached girl
Mmm, yeah...
So c'mon girl let me hold your hand
Let's go get lost, leave without a plan
And I know you 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
You know me, not the type of guy
To stick around, to do the time
But you must have me hypnotized
I'm d-d-d-down to be by your side
Every night
Darling I want all the strings attached
I love it when you look at me like that
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
And baby when you fall down
I'll fall too
And if you get lost
I'll get lost with you
And when the waves crash down
Then baby I won't move
'Cause I need
All the strings attached
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
I want all the strings, all the strings attached
All the strings attached girl
All the strings attached girl
Oh, yeah...
