Kim Carnes — Hangin On By a Thread

A familiar story A sad affair of the heart We spend all this time Tryin' to find the glow in the dark Gentle changes The eyes still look the same A familiar heartbeat I go weak when you walk in I'm hangin' on by a thread Too many voices in my ear Too many memories locked in here I'm hangin' on by a thread Too many voices in my ear We hurt each other Then wonder why We lie broken in two I was dreaming That you were here with me And through an open window We could look through straight to the sea I'm hangin' on by a thread Too many voices in my ear Too many memories locked in here I'm hangin' on by a thread Too many voices in my ear We hurt each other Then wonder why We lie broken in two And if I lose you now Lose you now A familiar story A sad affair of the heart
