Velcro Girl

from As Time Stands Still by Jimmy Brewer

/

lyrics

Well I was her crochet
I'm rough and she’s smooth
We’re connected together by hooks and by loops
Two faces embracing
Pressed close and secure
Oh just for a moment she was my velours

Oh I’ll always be waiting, I’ll always be true
I’ll always be stuck to my Velcro Girl

At face value
Our bond it was strong
Oh but from the edges it was torn all along
A betraying sound
And a deafening rip
As my hooks sadly struggled not to lose their grip

Oh I’ll always be waiting, I’ll always be true
I’ll always be stuck to my Velcro Girl

Well I've been so lonely
Since you tore us apart
Since you stuck me out here and unfastened my heart
A hook with no loop
Is a sad thing to be
But I'm easy to use and I'm maintenance free

Oh I’ll always be waiting, I’ll always be true
I’ll always be stuck to my Velcro Girl

Well I'm multi-purpose
And I'm easy and safe
You can use me to stop things from floating away
But I guess I am useless
For a long term fix
Cause I'm frayed at the edges and I’ll fall apart quick

Oh I’ll always be waiting, I’ll always be true
I’ll always be stuck to my Velcro Girl
