FAMILY TIES Lyrics by METTE
I want white lace on a white dress
Hand-me-downs I’ll never get
The last drip of your perfume from 91 to 92
I want stories from before me of all the girls you used to be
The tom boy and the beauty queen
The virgin girl all dressed in green
Did I ruin your body?
Did I blow the fantasy?
If you could rewrite history…
Tell me, would you choose to be tied to me?
Tied to me
Tied to me
Tied to me
Tied to me
Like a ribbon on a tree
Like the salt to the sea
Outta our body you’re tied to me
Tied to me
Tied to me
Family ties
Tied to me
Like the ribbon on a tree
You’re the stitching to my seams
I’m the heart on your sleeve and you’re tied to me
Gonna give you everything, every part of me
Through the highs and lows like a trampoline
I’ll be loving you tender watching the bloodline go
Now I feel a way when a week goes by
Need to hear your sounds from across the line
I tried to give you space but I was made to make you mine
Tied to me
Tied to me
Tied to me
Tied to me
Like a ribbon on a tree
Like the salt to the sea
Outta our body you’re tied to me
Tied to me
Tied to me
Family ties
Tied to me
Like the ribbon on a tree
You’re the stitching to my seams
I’m the heart on your sleeve and you’re tied to me
Yeah, you’re tied to
Yeah, you’re tied to me
Yeah, you’re tied to me
It was destiny, you’re tied to me
Yeah, you’re tied to me
Yeah, you’re tied to me
