Strings - finally found it!

So finally, after searching for years I found it!
I'll tell you the story: (short version)
When I was 15 years old,
I had a job at a library, from 1800 - 2100 tuesdays and thursdays
At night waiting at the bus stop after work
I was listening to my walkman to keep the dark night out...
I had borrowed a cassette (cause that was the thing then) from my older sister
It was a bit different from my liking, and obviously she didn't like it since she lent it to me..
After a while I tucked to one of the songs
and most of the lyrics stuck to my brain..

I forgot what band it was,
and it has been itching ever since..
I've tried to search for it on the web
and tried to search for it in the music sharing network..
But nothing...

Finally today..
I found it!
And here it is:

From Dr. Hook:

STRINGS
Strings, there's always strings,
attached to the things,
we think are free to take

Lines, thin shiny lines,
so very fine,
but so very hard to break

Threads, just hanging threads,
weaving a web that we can hardly see

But Oh,
we feel the strings,
pulling on you,
pulling on me

Strings,
invisible strings,
tying our wings,
keeping us on the ground

Strands,
soft silky strands,
takin' our hands and leavin' them tightly bound

Vines, clinging vines,
twisting they wind,
covering everything

Strings,
pulling on you,
pulling on me

So tangled together,
we don't want to be free
We're hurting and crying,
but trying endlessly

Strings,
there's always strings,
attached to the things,
we think are free to take

Lines, thin shiny lines,
so very fine,
but so very hard to break

Threads, tiny threads,
weaving a web that we can hardly see
But Oh,
we feel the strings,
pulling on you,
pulling on me

Oh, strings,
we feel the strings,
pulling on you,
pulling on me
pulling on you,
pulling on me
pulling on you,
pulling on me
pulling on you,
they're pulling on me....
