I wrapped a string around my thumb
To remind me of that singer at the station
By pretending that we liked his guitar the way he sung
Just to put off taking trains to different places
Remember lying naked on the porch
Making fun of Californians in the winter
I'm still waiting to wake, to tie your hair up on its form
So I tie another string around my little finger
Now I'm losing the feeling
All my fingers turning numb, pins and needles in my thumb
'Cause I'm losing the feeling
Now my hands are turning blue
But this knots are tying me
To the feeling of you
A wrote a list of movies that we'd see
Said we'd watch when I saw you in November
Now this became a promise that we made but couldn't keep
So I wrapped a loop around my little finger
Now I'm losing the feeling
All my fingers turning numb, pins and needles in my thumb
'Cause I'm losing the feeling
Now my hands are turning blue
But this knots are tying me
To the feeling of you
Now I'm losing the feeling
All my fingers turning numb, pins and needles in my thumb
'Cause I'm losing the feeling
Now my hands are turning blue
But this knots are tying me
To the feeling of you
I told you when we woke up in my bed
This is just a passing thing, no strings attached
We were riding 'till we parted with our strings in a knot
The harder that we pulled, the tighter that it got
