ARMS
I'm a couple days shy of a shutdown
I'm a couple years over this town
I'm a couple more stops on the Overground
Before I'm back where I want to be
Back where I want to be
I just collected my this month's pay cheque
I earn it but the gas board spend it
All the loan sharks want to lend it
Take another chunk out of me
Take another chunk out of me
In these aching arms, is where I want to keep you
Because when I hold you close
This is all that really matters
You do everything the best you can do
You're up early, work the whole long day through
Every hour that The Good Lord sends you
Then you’re lying in bed, moonlight
Creeping under lashes
Creeping under lashes
I'm dreaming of a house in Sydney
On the rocks but nothing too fancy
Just the Tasman Sea for company
But even if we don’t get there
Or get off the end of the street
In these aching arms, is where I want to keep you
Because when I hold you close
This is all that really matters
It's alright, close your eyes, don't you worry now
Even though we're gonna turn this thing around
Nothing gonna feel as good as right now
Nothing gonna feel as good as right now
Right now this is all that really matters
In these aching arms, is where I want to keep you
Because when I hold you close
This is all that really matters
