Have you ever been alone,
waitin' on the phone......to ring.

Have you ever tried and cried,
waiting on the side.......just to sing.

All those beats you feel inside,
and that feeling starts to climb.
And it sings sweet to your name.
Like beaded honey on a string.

Have you ever wished the day,
didn't come your way......or dawn.

Have you ever played the fool,
thinkin' you were cool.....all along.

And all those times I've tried
And kept the sorrows all inside
Were released the day I said your name.
Like I'm breathin' deep again.

Then I open the door,
and see you once more.
And the glint from your eye,
fills me inside, with your smile.

Like honey on a string
Like honey on a string
Like honey on a string.
