  • WhenI was married that's all I ever asked for.....someone to tangle in my apron strings.....I never got it. Then HE made the decision for me & now it will never be.

  • I was turned on to this song by an old flame and it was "our" song. 20 years later, we still keep in touch and the song is as beautiful and powerful as ever.

  • good original version, but i preferred their 1992 acoustics..great

  • wonderful, Tracys, has such a beautiful voice, one of the best.. i adore this song..

  • this song melts my heart so much, i adore tracys voice, its beautiful.

  • I like this song but wonder what she is singing about.

    Anyone have any insight?

  • i feel shes singing about her longing to have some one to care for, has maybe she sees an ex or friend with a child, imo..

  • Thank you for your response.

    I was thinking along those lines also.

  • it is a beautiful song, one of my favs, i think because of the lyrics, thats why i like it

  • Your baby looks just like you when you were young And he looks at me with eyes that shine And I wish that he were mine Then I go home To my Apron strings Cold and lonely, For time brings thoughts that only Will be quiet when someone clings to my apron strings. And I'll be perfect in my own way When you cry I will be there I'll sing to you and comb your hair All your troubles I will share
  • Apron strings

    Hanging empty crazy things

    My body tells me

    I want someone to tie to my

    Apron strings

    Apron strings

    Waiting for you pretty things

    That I could call you

    I want someone to tie to my

    Lonely apron strings.

  • Thank You!! I have been wanting this song since She's Having a Baby first came out...lol ;o)
