String him along,
these off -surface flaws
If you had a deep relationship now,
he'd be
See him walking down the street
Acting like he was maybe a king
But just one word from you
And he'll be on his knees
promising anything
String him along,
string him along
String him along,
string him along
He only enjoys her,
cause he knows it hurts you
But he'd be devastated,
girl, if you found someone new
He never noticed your tenderness,
he never looked on you as his best friend
He thinks he's somebody
when really he's no one at all
And sometimes you want to say
something before things go wrong
You know I always admired you
because you were that strong
And it's what you do now
String him along
String him along
String him along
String him along
And when he gets a little older,
and life gets a little colder
He'll wonder where he went wrong,
and how you were right and you could both have gone along
So string him along,
string him along
String him along, string him along
See him walking down the street
Act ing like he was maybe a kid
But just one word from you
An d he'll be on his knees
promising everything
Oh, string him along, string him along
The little jerk now
String him along
Hey, you're so clever now
String him along
Hey, string him along
I wish that was me now
String him along
String him along
String him along
String him along now
String him along
Yeah, string him along
Gonna be teasing
String him along
