Hanging By A Thread


Sung by David Jones



I tried to tell you how I feel, but it came out wrong
It wasn't what I meant, it was much too strong,
But sometimes, baby, I just see red,
I just see red.

And before I had a chance to apologize,
You went off alone, and I realize
Tonight I'm gonna face an empty bed
Hanging by a thread.

Hanging on the hope that you still care
A tiny strand of rope is all we share
I'm gonna take back the things I said
Hanging by a thread.

I don't know what's going on in your mind,
But I know I'm in a race against time,
And all I see is trouble up ahead,
Trouble up ahead

I close my eyes and see a bright razor blade
Cutting through the plans that we made
A picture of a future in my head
Hanging by a thread.

Hanging on the hoping that you still care
A tiny strand of rope is all we share
I'm gonna take back the things I said
Hanging by a thread.

Hanging on a hope that you still care
A tiny strand of rope is all we share
I'm gonna take back the things I said
Hanging by a thread.

Before it's all lost to the wind
Hear me out again
I've got something on my chest,
And it won't let me rest, let me rest, let me rest, let me rest, let me rest

Hanging on a hope that you still care
A tiny strand of rope is all we share
I'm gonna take back the things I said
Hanging by a thread.

Hanging on a hope that you still care
A tiny strand of rope is all we share
I'm gonna take back the things I said
(fades)
