Apron Strings   (Watt, Thorn)   Idlewild    Tracey Thorn - vocals, Ben Watt - guitar & vocals   Album: Everything But The Girl (1988)   WEA, Ltd.Sire Records, 25721-21   Transcriber: Awcantor@aol.com         Apron strings hanging empty   Crazy things my body tells me   I want someone to tie to my apron strings   Apron strings waiting for you   Pretty things that I could call you   I want someone to tie to my lonely apron strings      Your baby looks just like you when you were young   And he looks at me with eyes that shine   And I wish that he were mine   Then I go home to my apron strings   Cold and loney, for time brings thoughts   That only will be quiet   When someone clings to my apron strings      And I'll be perfect in my own way   When you cry I will be there   I'll sing to you and comb your hair   All your troubles I will share   For apron strings can be used for other things   Than what they're meant for   And you'll be happy wrapped in my apron strings   You'll be happy wrapped in my apron strings.      ~
