lyrics

you have her smile and you have his name
but you look like an orphan at heart
feral and wild no i'm not afraid
to let myself be torn apart
in your arms
in your arms

you say forever's a mighty long time
i say that sounds about right
i'd give the finger to all of eternity
if i could just spend the night
in your arms
in your arms

i've been all over i've climbed every hill
looking for something that's real
but all the good drugs no they don't measure up
can't beat the way that i feel
in your arms
in your arms

you say you're sorry for breaking my heart
tell me that i'm not enough
baby i know i don't care where you go
i only want to wake up
in your arms
in your arms

fly like you'll never fall go where you want
find yourself somebody new
you might be right i’m just wasting my life
but i want to waste it with you
in your arms
in your arms

in your arms
in your arms
in your arms
in your arms
