invisible string

[00:00.15] •••

[00:11.54] Green was the color of the grass where I used to read at Centennial Park

[00:17.04] I used to think I would meet somebody there

[00:22.80] Teal was the color of your shirt when you were 16 at the yogurt shop

[00:28.57] You used to work at to make a little money

[00:34.57] Time

[00:35.06] Curious time

[00:36.46] Gave me no compasses

[00:37.96] Gave me no signs

[00:39.70] Were there clues I didn't see?

[00:46.57] And isn't it just so pretty to think

[00:50.19] All along there was some

[00:53.45] Invisible string

[00:56.69] Tying you to me?

[01:08.94] Bad was the blood of the song in the cab on your first trip to LA

[01:14.59] You ate at my favorite spot for dinner

[01:20.34] Bold was the waitress on our three-year trip getting lunch down by the Lakes

[01:26.07] She said I looked like an American singer

[01:31.83] Time

[01:32.60] Mystical time

[01:34.09] Cutting me open, then healing me fine

[01:37.20] Were there clues I didn't see?

[01:43.94] And isn't it just so pretty to think

[01:47.69] All along there was some

[01:51.07] Invisible string

[01:54.31] Tying you to me?

[02:04.83] A string that pulled me

[02:07.95] Out of all the wrong arms right into that dive bar

[02:13.45] Something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire

[02:19.43] Chains around my demons

[02:22.22] Wool to brave the seasons

[02:26.20] One single thread of gold tied me to you

[02:35.18] Cold was the steel of my axe to grind for the boys who broke my heart

[02:40.98] Now I send their babies presents

[02:46.71] Gold was the color of the leaves when I showed you around Centennial Park

[02:52.43] Hell was the journey but it brought me heaven

[02:58.19] Time

[02:58.82] Wondrous time

[03:00.16] Gave me the blues and then purple pink skies

[03:03.29] And it's cool

[03:04.70] Baby with me

[03:10.26] And isn't it just so pretty to think

[03:14.00] All along there was some

[03:17.26] Invisible string

[03:20.26] Tying you to me?
