Lyrics
Knots
Words and Music by Mark Nesmith
Like a knot you've got me tied up
twisted up inside
When I say I don't love you
you know it’s just a lie
If I could catch all my worries
and give them right back to you
What would you do?
Like a balloon you've got me floating
drifting up to the sky
I've got no sense of gravity
to keep me from flying too high
If I burst in the clouds
and fall back down to Earth
Would it make you hurt?
Like a top you've got me spinning
Round and around
I’m light headed and dizzy
when my feet finally touch the ground
If I trip and I stumble
and fall flat on my face
Would it make you ache?
