lyrics

PIECE OF STRING

I know.. you been messing me round
I heard... I heard it all round town
I wonder who... is gonna bring you down

How can ..you look me in the eye
How dare ...you sit right there and lie
I guess ..you wanna see me cry

How far... you gonna push this thing
How high... you wanna make me sing
Well I heard you say.. how long's a piece of string

How long......
How long's a piece of string

Someday... when you're alone and blue
Yeah someday... it's gonna dawn on you
Just how much you pay.. for all the stuff you do

Well I hope... you won't be blue too long
Honey 'fore you hear... love's sweet, sweet song
But it won't be me 'cos honey I'll be gone

How long, how long.... your lonely heart will sing
How long, how long... until true love will spring
Well honey ask yourself
How long's a piece of string ?
