Tangled Up Puppet - Harry Chapin[00:00:02]
There was a time that you curled up[00:00:19]
In my lap like a child [00:00:23]
You'd cling to me smilin'[00:00:26]
Your eyes wide and wild [00:00:30]
Now you slip through my arms [00:00:34]
Wave a passing hello [00:00:37]
Twist away and toss a kiss[00:00:42]
Laughin' as you go [00:00:45]
You used to say "Read me a story "[00:00:50]
And "Sing me songs of love "[00:00:55]
For you were Princess Paradise[00:00:59]
On the wings of a dove [00:01:03]
Now I chase you and I tease you[00:01:06]
Tryin' to remake you my own [00:01:10]
You just turn away and say [00:01:14]
"Please leave me alone "[00:01:18]
And I'm a tangled up puppet[00:01:27]
All hangin' in your strings [00:01:31]
I'm a butterfly in a spider's web[00:01:35]
Fluttering my wings [00:01:40]
And the more that I keep dancin'[00:01:43]
And spinning 'round in knots[00:01:46]
The more I see what used to be[00:01:51]
And the less of you I've got [00:01:55]
You are a drawer full of make-up[00:02:00]
And rinses and things [00:02:04]
You keep changing your moods [00:02:07]
Like your earrings and rings [00:02:12]
But tonight while we played tag[00:02:15]
For five minutes in the yard [00:02:19]
Just for a moment I caught you off-guard [00:02:23]
And I'm a tangled up puppet[00:02:36]
All hangin' in your strings [00:02:40]
I'm a butterfly in a spider's web[00:02:44]
Fluttering my wings [00:02:49]
And the more that I keep dancing[00:02:52]
And spinning 'round in knots [00:02:56]
The more I see what used to be[00:03:00]
And the less of you I've got [00:03:04]
Now you write your secret poems[00:03:10]
In a room just for your dreams [00:03:13]
You don't find time to talk to me[00:03:17]
About the things you mean [00:03:21]
And what I mean is--[00:03:32]
I have watched you take shape[00:03:37]
From a jumble of parts[00:03:42]
And find the grace and form[00:03:46]
Of a fine work of art [00:03:50]
Hey you my brand new woman[00:03:54]
Newly come into your own [00:03:59]
Don't you know[00:04:05]
That you don't need[00:04:07]
To grow up all alone[00:04:09]
