When the sun comes up I can see that you're not here And the whole world stops But the wind-up bird keeps winding up its string And the days go by and you don't come back But I know you will because there's something pulling both of us Back and forth, up and down All around, in and out of love And I've been holding on Holding on for so long that I can't let you go Even when we're apart I can feel you next to me There's a hidden love connecting us like voices on a string ♪ At the bottom of the well, in the middle of the day You're the passing sunlight Stay with me, don't go away I can hear your voice cutting through the wire It's the silver spark connecting us and pulling me Back and forth, up and down All around, in and out of love And I've been holding on Holding on for so long that I can't let you go Even when we're apart I can feel you next to me There's a hidden love connecting us like voices on a string Even when I'm alone I can tell you're with me There's a hidden love connecting us And I'm holding on, holding on by a string ♪ Back and forth, up and down In and out, all around Back and forth, up and down In and out, all around this love Even when we're apart I can feel you next to me There's a hidden love connecting us I'm holding on, holding on by a string
