You were here, and then you left
Now there's nobody, nobody
Now they're all just second best
There's nobody, nobody

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?

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 heartstrings

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 heartstrings

And 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

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?

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 heartstrings

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 heartstrings

You're in the country and 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

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?

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 heartstrings

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 heartstrings (heartstrings, heartstrings, heartstrings, heartstrings)
