LOOSE ENDS - Rosie Thomas
from the album "If Songs Could Be Held"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She's like a sweater old and used
Tossed and overworn too many times through
and she used to look so bright,
all her seams were tightly tight
She's like a sweater that's just warn out
Frayed and coffee-stained and out of style
and she's just about to run
before her stitches come undone, mmm
she's gonna pack her bags and leave
no more loose unravelled seams
So she is young and she still has her confidence
and it's not too late to tie up those loose ends
she's like a fire in the rain
those words will damp her eyes and hit her veins
and the love she thought she found
was just another hand me down, with dangling frays
She's gonna pack her bags and leave
no more loose unravelled seams
So she is young and she still has her confidence
and it's not too late to tie up those loose ends
She's found a refuge for her face
a wall dividing her unfortunate displace
and now she stands too high
for them to wring her dry, she's found her way
She's gonna pack her bags and leave
no more loose unravelled seams
So she is young and she still has her confidence
and it's not too late to tie up those loose ends
no it's not too late to tie up those loose ends.
