Tie me to your apron strings again
I know there's room for me upon your knee
Bring back all those happy hours
When you kissed my tears away from day to day.

I thought that I was right but I was wrong
Please take me back tonight where I belong
Sing a cradle song to me and then
Won't you tie me to your apron string again?

(Tie me to your apron strings again
I know there's room for me upon your knee
Bring back all those happy hours
When you kissed my tears away from day to day.)
