Everything But the Girl - Apron Strings Lyrics

Apron strings 
Hanging empty 
Crazy things 
My body tells me 
I want someone to tie to my 
Apron strings 

Apron strings 
Waiting for you 
Pretty things 
That I could call you 
I want someone to tie to my lonely 
Apron strings 

A baby looks just like you when you were young 
And he looks at me with eyes that shine 
And I wish that he were mine 
Then I go home to my 

Apron strings 
Cold and lonely 
For time brings 
Thoughts that only 
Will be quiet when someone clings to my 
Apron strings 

And I'll be perfect in my way 
When you cry I will be there 
I'll sing to you and comb your hair 
All your troubles I will share 

For apron strings 
Can be used for other things 
Than what they're meant for 
You'd be happy wrapped in my 
Apron strings 

You'd be happy wrapped in my 
Apron strings
