lyrics
If you've played long-distance, you've played fast & loose
Seen the engine wrap around, to hit the caboose
And heartstrings left untied get torn in two
So we pulled the strings tight, we pulled them past taut
We dared them to snap, but they would not
Now we're tied to the back of the bumper and the strings are caught
Was it too little or too late?
When you finally awake
From dreams of your design
That made up your mind
I dropped the ball and fell down to the bar
Then I dropped a dime and slept in my car
While a message on your machine asks where you are
Come back baby from the deep deep south
Food just turns to sand in my mouth
And I can't get down a thing until you end this draught
Was it too little or too late?
When you finally awake
From dreams of your design
That made up your mind
If you've played long-distance, you've played fast & loose
Seen the engine wrap around, to hit the caboose
And heartstrings left untied get torn in two
Seen the engine wrap around, to hit the caboose
And heartstrings left untied get torn in two
So we pulled the strings tight, we pulled them past taut
We dared them to snap, but they would not
Now we're tied to the back of the bumper and the strings are caught
Was it too little or too late?
When you finally awake
From dreams of your design
That made up your mind
I dropped the ball and fell down to the bar
Then I dropped a dime and slept in my car
While a message on your machine asks where you are
Come back baby from the deep deep south
Food just turns to sand in my mouth
And I can't get down a thing until you end this draught
Was it too little or too late?
When you finally awake
From dreams of your design
That made up your mind
If you've played long-distance, you've played fast & loose
Seen the engine wrap around, to hit the caboose
And heartstrings left untied get torn in two
