Ribbons Lyrics


I'm sitting pretty and I don't know why
I found somebody, said he'd make me fly
Wrapped me up in ribbons then he left me to die
Wrapped me up in ribbons then he left me to dieTold me he'd hold me 'til there was no more
Told me that he'd love me from the top to the floor
Wrapped me up in ribbons then he went for the door
Wrapped me up in ribbons then he went for the doorAll the time he takes are the words that he breaks
All the time he takes are the words that he breaks'Cause I'm not flying
I'm not flying am I
I'm not flying so damn high in the sky
I'm not flying
I'm not flying am I
I'm not flying am IYou look so pretty in the dark of night
But I'm getting wise in the early light
I can see you falling like a homemade kite
I can see you falling like a homemade kiteYou put your Sunday best on for us all
Painting up a promise that you know will fall
Wrap me in your ribbons tie me to the wall

Wrap me in your ribbons tie me to the wallAll the time he takes are the words that he breaks
All the time he takes are the words that he breaks'Cause I'm not flying
I'm not flying am I
I'm not flying so damn high in the sky
I'm not flying
I'm not flying am I
I'm not flying am IYou walk on everybody
You walk on everyone
You walk right up and you ask me to dance
You ask me to dance
You ask me to dance then you walk awayNo I'm not flying am I
I'm not flying so damn high
No I'm not flying
I'm not flying am I
I'm not flying
No I'm not flying am I
I'm not flying am I
