Lyrics:
She can’t find the words to break it to me
cause she always was the gentle kind
she’s hopin’ I’ll hear it from a friend somewhere
she’s hopin’ I’ll read between the lines
but it comes as no surprise
cause she told me with her eyes
so watch her untie the tie that binds
she’s got a single thing in mindShe’s already gone except in body
it’s just a matter now, of time
well I should have seen
the storm clouds gatherin
but he who won’t look is just as blind
so there’s only me to blame
when my woman dropped my name
so watch her untie the tie that binds
she’s got a single thing in mindSo watch her untie the tie that binds
she’s got a single thing in mind
