[00:02.51]	We drained every dime, in the lower east side
[00:07.61]	And you failed to catch the train back to Queens
[00:10.61]	So you came to my room
[00:16.98]	We did some things that we knew not to do
[00:20.47]	In the glow of the night’s golden cue
[00:26.21]
[00:26.77]	Chorus:
[00:27.08]	You’ve got the tattered light of string,
[00:30.57]	And you tied round everything
[00:34.19]	That you want to call your own
[00:37.44]	But it never seems to hold
[00:40.75]	When we walk, we agreed
[00:42.93]	That we will not ever s?eak of this night to anyone that we both knew
[00:52.98]
[00:54.47]	Then you said:
[00:55.53]	‘Every time we kissed, I felt something that couldn’t exist’
[01:03.08]	And I confessed that I thought I felt it too
[01:08.01]	Chorus:
[01:08.33]	I’ve got a tattered light of string,
[01:11.82]	And I tied round everything
[01:15.13]	That I want to call your own
[01:18.56]	But it never seems to hold
[01:21.88]	Chorus:
[01:22.44]	I got a tattered light of string,
[01:25.50]	And I tied round everything
[01:28.87]	That I want to call your own
[01:32.24]	But it never seems to hold
[01:38.41]	E-verything
[01:39.72]	Every-thing
[01:47.52]	Never seems to hold
[01:51.08]	Never seems to hold
[01:59.57]
[02:03.44]	Chorus:
[02:03.69]	You’ve got the tattered light of string,
[02:06.68]	And you tied round everything
[02:09.61]
[02:10.24]	That you want to call your own
[02:13.36]	But it never seems to hold
[02:16.10]	Chorus:
[02:16.73]	I got a tattered light of string,
[02:20.16]	And I tied round everything
[02:23.72]	That I want to call your own
