Tied With A Ribbon

Ice is melting, leaves are turning brown

Sun is setting, trains are stopped in town

And nobody warned me how fast this would hit

Cause back in my brain you are still just some kid

Now you're sitting in the front seat and you're losing more than your teeth

And you're starting to come to me for advice

And you say your friends think I'm cool but I'm still the weird me in school

So don't you ever think I don't look twice

I close my eyes for just a minute

And it seems like years have gone by

And I know it's different but don't forget that

We will always, always be tied

With a ribbon, with a ribbon, with a ribbon, with a ribbon

Phone is crying, friends start lying

And all the calls are for you

Like a river flowing, she knows where she's going

And there's nothing that we can do

And nobody warned me how fast this would hit

Cause back in my brain you are still just some kid

Now you're sitting in the front seat and you're losing more than your teeth

And you're starting to come to me for advice

And you say your friends think I'm cool but I'm still the weird me in school

So don't you ever think I don't look twice

I close my eyes for just a minute

And it seems like years have gone by

And I know it's different but don't forget that

We will always, always be tied

With a ribbon, with a ribbon, with a ribbon, with a ribbon

And I tied your shoes and I read to you

So don't you dare leave me behind

And I know it's wrong but I'm keeping you

Like a little statue in my mind

I close my eyes for just a minute

And it seems like years have gone by

And I know it's different but don't forget that

We will always, always be tied

With a ribbon, with a ribbon, with a ribbon

With a ribbon, with a ribbon, with a ribbon
