(GUITAR)
Just looking at your smile makes my heart
(heartbeat) beat for you forever
Your teasing me with laughs and kisses
Don't you know you're playing a song inside me?

Every time we talk, every time we smile
There's another note you add
You're tugging at my heartstrings, playing a melody in me
And it goes a little something like this

(CHORUS-Man's voice)
Darling, I'll be yours
Just say the word and I'm yours forever
Come on and show me a grin
Open your heart and let me in

'Cuz you know I'm waiting patiently
For a reason to hold your hand
So come on beautiful, open up those doors
And let me in
(END CHORUS)

(GUITAR STRUM) There, you did it again
And nowhere close do I see an end
To that, "Hey, baby, don't you look swell?"
Oh, honey, don't you know that I'm burning in Love's Hell?

Seeing that joy that you have when she's around
I can't just sit and act like I don't care
You're plucking at my heartstrings, playing me a song
And goes a little something like this

(CHORUS-Man's voice)
Darling, I'll be yours
Just say the word and I'm yours forever
Come on and show me a grin
Open your heart and let me in

'Cuz you know I'm waiting patiently
For a reason to hold your hand
So come on beautiful, open up those doors
And let me in
(END CHORUS)

You keep playing that tune
Making my fragile love swoon
You should join that band of boys
That use us girls' hearts as their toys

To play that melancholy song
To this pain, we don't belong
So if you want to be with me
Please be gentle with my heartstrings

(Guitar)

My heartstrings...
You keep playing that awful song
So beautiful, yet so sad
My heartstrings, yeah...
