Heartstrings

(Album: 3 Chords & The Truth - 2004)

She never really got over what happened
Said it'd be better if she left it alone
She said it always seems to end up in heartache
Couldn't be bothered it's a waste of her time
He said if she would open up to the option
He thinks that maybe he could change her mind
She knows it's possible that he could be lying
Maybe it's worth it maybe he's the one

There it goes pushing, pulling, tugging on your heartstrings
Once again did you ever think you'd get away?
There it goes calling you to jump into its fire
All you can do is pray that you don't get burned

She never had a lot of luck with romance now
It's only logical that she'd be afraid
But something's telling her to give it a chance now
Don't want to listen but she has no choice

Something about him makes her wild and excited
And when he calls she can't contain how she feels
Lately she always wants to know if he's alright
She's starting to believe that maybe its real

There it goes pushing, pulling, tugging on your heartstrings
Once again did you ever think you'd get away?
There it goes calling you to jump into its fire
All you can do is pray that you don't get burned
