[Chorus: Cydney Ee] Hope dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption Winding in and winding out The shine of it has caught my eye And roped me in So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing I am captivated I am... Hope dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption Winding in and winding out The shine of it has caught my eye And roped me in So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing I am captivated I am... [Verse One: G, The Wiz] Flawed, in a beautiful way Have you ever met somebody who just changed your ways Grants you all the love with no label category But now we live as stranger with animosity So I say, you say, I'm sorry for my ways But let's not seek forgiveness on the truth that we shared We point fingers to ourselves because we're too blame Even though you said goodbye just I wanted us to stay Hey How you doing? Where you've been? I haven't seen you Are just some of the things I've been wanting to ask you It seems like I've travelled the world in the same shoes And if they could talk, just imagine what they'd tell you He grew up, he moved on, trying to find you From LA to New York he's talked about you In his stories, in his movies, they always ask who? Was the one in your life that you write too? Give me the power to time travel let me find you Tell myself of a person that really needs you Change the course of a future is what I would do Just so you and I can be what we wanted to When we were younger in the summer; Never faded to a slumber 6AM we said goodnight I always thought and always wondered Where we'd be in 20 years, computer screens
Came in the way to tell you all the honest things I feel Let's, flash forward, now we're older, and we're moving up You found a man, I found a pa**ion that I'm living up But when the sound I make sound eerie laced with broken love It always seems to be you that I'm thinking of [Chorus: Cydney Ee] Hope dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption Winding in and winding out The shine of it has caught my eye And roped me in So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing I am captivated [Verse Two: G, The Wiz] Hope, one day that I'll see you So I could tell you all the things that I couldn't tell you As for being young and foolish that time went before it came I don't even wait for people if the interests aren't the same It's a blessing and a curse that I never had you For if I ever had your love, this music I wouldn't do For the sake of a future and perhaps a family too I would have never even know of this talent too Because I'm I am Vindicated I am selfish I am wrong I am right I swear I'm right I swear I knew it all along And I am flawed But I am cleaning up so well I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself [Cydney Ee] So clear Like the diamond in your ring Cut to mirror your intentions Oversized and overwhelmed The shine of which has caught my eye And rendered me so isolated, so motivated I am certain now that Hope dangles on a string Like slow spinning redemption Winding in and winding out The shine of it has caught my eye And roped me in So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing I am captivated I am...
