She put a ring on it
Because she though her heart was already caught
She put a tattoo on it
Because she thought her love was already sought
But it's so cruel when life wasn't going to plan
And in her blue ocean, her eyes opened to desert sand
She thought she was was caught in a bad dream
Tried to awake but returned to the crime scene
Someone cut off her heartstrings
Now she's dancing with me
Her love and life was suppose to be set
But her day and time went forward too soon
How her heart strings used to choke
I made the facts clear
But she didn't want to listen, she didn't want to believe
But where did her love go
I don't see someone walking her down the aisle
She played into the hands of dispair
When she reached out for the first pair she saw
Now it's going to be some time before heart strings grow back
I hope she knows that she can never get her vote recounted
Chorus X 2
Those heartstrings choke
Those heartstrings choke
Those heartstrings choke
Those heartstrings choke
When will it be, when you move on
When will it be, when love lets you know
And you still many rivers to cross
When will your heartstrings tie to another love
Chorus X 2
