Jim Stapley - HeartStrings Lyrics
It was a perfect day, when I called to say‘I’m on the way to you, tomorrow’I’d escaped my hell, and later at The RooseveltYou took away all my sorrowThen I disappeared on you, flew into the blueYour silver screen end of scene come trueAnd I left you hanging on, as out time slipped awayWhat a mistakeSo please, don’t pull my heartstringsFrom a thousand miles awayPlease, don’t pull my heartstrings,Cos they’re already strainedIt was a perfect day, when I called to say‘I’m on the way to you, tomorrow’Now I love to hear from you, and how you’re getting onBut i breathe a sigh when no letters comeCos getting on with getting on, still feels so wrongAnd I ain’t that strongSo please, don’t pull my heartstringsFrom a thousand miles awayPlease, don’t pull my heartstringsWe’d be dancing round in small circles,To your favourite songDrinking whiskey ’til the morning light led us homeI don’t wanna knowSo please, don’t pull my heartstringsFrom a thousand miles awayPlease, don’t pull my heartstrings,Cos they’re already strained
