You lift your jacket in the backseat, that's why I'm calling you now
I found a curled up in a ball, I was cleaning the odor out
Swing by the house anytime you want, oh I can drop it all
You know whiskey makes me honest, tequila makes you mean
Last thing I remember you were cussing, my keys were in the weeds
You threw them out and said I'd love to see you leave
But I won't let you go kill yourself or get busted by the po-po
So I staggered home alone, still thinking about you
I'm through talking about all the things we can't change
It's hard moving on, I don't want you gone
Ain't it strange the way we keep trying to tie down this thing
With these loose strings
Baby, if we weren't so hard-headed, maybe we wouldn't fight
And if you weren't so damn pretty
Maybe we wouldn't fight
You said you can't live with me, oh but you can't live without
It's the little things I think about when I stagger home alone
Still thinking about you
I'm through talking about all the things we can't change
It's hard moving on, I don't want you gone
But ain't it strange the way we keep trying to tie down this thing
With these loose strings
Ain't know what it's gonna be, babe
What you get is what you see, babe
We can try and lock it down
It might hold for now
That ain't you and me
We keep tying ourselves down
With these loose strings
Every time we're together
Every time I turn around
Loose strings
The two of us just tangled up in
Loose strings
Every time I think I love you
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
Loose strings
you
