Hangin' On by a Thread Songtext
von Kim Carnes

A familiar story
A sad affair of the heart
We spend all this time
Trying 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
Oh, lose you now
