String Around My Finger

String Around My Finger -The Well Pennies

As I lay sleeping the lamp beside me

Flickers light in a ring around my room

And in the halo a welcome memory

Of a time when I was still in love with

You

You we're always that light around me

When I was younger

I could never understand

Through all that heartache the pain that

I take

Could melt away inside the comfort

Of your hand

But your lovin'ain't and easy

Thing to find

There's a string around my finger

There's a hold around

My mind

Lately it seems you turn up in all my dreams

I'm tryin'to find my way back home to you

You took off I never thought you'd leave me

I think you ride around this town away

Too long

You built me up just to let me go down

Easy

I swore I'd never think of you once you had

Gone

But your lovin'ain't and easy way to go

There's a string around my finger

There's a hold around

My soul

Lately it seems you turn up in all my dreams

I'm tryin'to find my way back home to you

Though the years have gone you still

Linger on and on and on

Took a ride out to holly's diner

Took a ride thinkin'you got over me

There I saw you alone and lovely

Now I'm sittin'right back where

I used to be

But your lovin'ain't and easy thing to find

There's a string around my finger

There's a hold around my mind

And lately it seems you turn up in all my dreams

I finally found my way back home to you

And all your lovin'ain't and easy way to go

There's a string around my finger

There's a hold around

My soul

Lately it seems you turn up in all my dreams

I finally found my way back home to you

I finally found my way back home to you
