Shawn Mendes - Strings [Live; Live] Lyrics

I met this girl when I was three years old
We were holding hands tight so I'm told
And it felt like an eternity
Said it felt like an eternity
'Cause I knew back then we were more than friends
Two sided story it all depends
And I'll say it once, and I'll say it again
It'll only end up hurting me

Years flew by I was less than twelve
Long division I need your help
Can you come on over and work with me
Anytime you like I'll make it work for me
'Cause I knew back when if we get too close
When the time is right maybe I'll propose
Baby climb on up, show me the ropes, sing it

Darling I want all the strings attached
I love it when you look at me like that
And you're the only girl that brings me back
'Cause baby I want all the strings attached
It's like always and forever
I won't let a moment pass
And when I'm with you I feel better
I want all the strings, all the strings attached

All the strings attached, girl
All the strings attached girl, oh

So come on girl let me hold your hand
Let's go get lost, live without a plan
And I know you've got the world to see
But you know you mean the world to me
And I know right now you got second thoughts
Do whatever it takes, pay whatever the cost yeah

You know me, not the type of guy
To stick around, to do the time
But you must have me hypnotized
I'm d-d-d-down to be by your side, yeah
Every night, yeah

And darling I want all the strings attached
I love it when you look at me like that
And you're the only girl that brings me back
'Cause baby I want all the strings attached
It's like always and forever
I won't let a moment pass
And when I'm with you I feel better
I want all the strings

All the strings and when you fall down
I fall too
And if you get lost, then I'll get lost with you
And when the waves crash down
I promise I won't move
'Cause I need

All the strings attached
I love it when you look at me like that
And you're the only girl that brings me back
Baby I want all the strings attached, sing it out
It's like always and forever
I won't let a moment pass (beautiful)
And when I'm with you I feel better
I want all the strings
All the strings attached
All the strings attached, girl
All the strings attached, girl, oh
Thank you
