Loose Strings

You left your jacket in the back seat That's why I'm callin' you now I found it curled up in a ball I was cleanin' the 'yota out Swing by the house anytime you want Or I can drop it off You know whiskey makes me honest Tequila makes you mean Last thing I remember you were cussin' My keys were in the weeds You threw 'em out Said "I'd love to see you leave But I won't let you go kill yourself Or get busted by the po-po" So I staggered home alone Still thinkin' about you I'm through talkin' about all the things we can't change It's hard movin' on I don't want you gone Ain't it strange the way we keep tryin' to tie down this thing With these loose strings Baby, if we weren't so hard-headed Maybe we wouldn't fight And if you weren't so damn pretty I might have slept last night You say you can't live with me Ah, but you can't live without It's the little things I think about When I stagger home alone Still thinkin' about you I'm through talkin' about all the things we can't change It's hard movin' on I don't want you gone But ain't it strange the way we keep tryin' to tie down this thing With these loose strings Ain't no "What it's gonna be," babe What you get is what you see, babe We can try and lock it down It might hold for now But that ain't you and me We keep tyin' ourselves down With these loose strings Every time I turn around Loose strings The two of us just tangled up in Loose strings Every time I think I love you Loose strings Loose strings Loose strings Loose strings
