Tin Can On A String Lyrics - Wheelhouse - Brad Paisley

After the breakup, 

I really thought we'd make up. 

Give her a little time, I'd be on her mind 

And suddenly she'd wake up. 

But today if you listen, 

Softly off in the distance, 

Somewhere 'cross town, you can hear the sound 

Of wedding bells ringing. 

And there's bird seed on the concrete, 

And she's waving goodbye 

And they're driving away 

And everybody cheerin' them on as the taillights fade 

Yeah she's really gone, 

I thought someday that would be me 

But now she's driving away in that limousine 

And I'm holdin' on 

Like a tin can on a string.

Somewhere in my mind, 

I'm the one by her side. 

In that backseat, talkin' 'bout the beach 

And that honeymoon flight. 

I'd play the whole thing out, 

From the kids to the house, 

To the future that we always dreamed about. 

But there's bird seed on the concrete, 

And back here in reality 

She's driving away 

And everybody cheerin' them on as the taillights fade 

Yeah she's really gone, 

I thought someday that would be me 

But now she's driving away in that limousine 

And I'm holdin' on 

Like a tin can on a string.

I thought someday that would be me 

But now she's driving away in that limousine 

And I'm not ready to let go of everything 

So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on 

Like a tin can on a string.
