Stitches

Another hard night to get through again
Draw the curtain, turn off the light
I know you're hurtin', he was your friend
Come and tell you, you'll be alright.

Tattered and torn in two
There's only one thing I can think of to do
I'll pull out my thimble, my needle and thread
And I'll stitch you back up like new.

Holding hands, stealing sweet kisses
Boy thinks he's fallen in love
She broke his heart now he's crying his eyes out
Among us he'll push or come shove.

Tattered and torn in two
There's only one thing I can think of to do
I'll pull out my thimble, my needle and thread
And I'll stitch you back up like new.

Someday my son, you'll be a man
With a child and life of your own
It may not be now, someday you'll understand
To care for each stitch that you've sewn
Trust me son
Someday when I'm gone
These stitches will stay strong for you.

Tattered and torn in two
There's only one thing I can think of to do
I'll pull out my thimble, my needle and thread
And stitch you back up
Oh I'll stitch you back up
I'll stitch you back up like new.
