Anxious Arms

There was a guy, making a plan
Find a girl and she’d understand
And say, «Well, please, don’t worry.»
This one was right
That was the thing
Closing your eyes and see wedding rings
Well, there is no hurry
A day like today, they’re waiting for wings to form
They’re waiting for clouds and storms
And for safety
And I said, «I will.»
I ask you, «Please, lie still.»
Your faith means everything
The one thing that I protect well
Don’t you know?
Don’t you forget
The sound of my voice
Hands down in the hold, I brace
Put your hands on your handsome face
And lie when you say
You haven’t got much, but maybe today
And it’s all you won’t become
And it’s everything you might have done
My dear, we’re closing in fast on another year
I will be anxious arms
Beside myself when there’s no one else
Would you be my answer, then?
Won’t you be my answer?
Say it again
I will be anxious arms
Beside myself when there’s no one else
Would you be my answer, then?
Won’t you be my answer?
Say it again
A day like today, they’re waiting for wings to form
They’re waiting for clouds and storms
And for safety
I said, «I will.»
I ask you, «Please, lie still.»
Your faith means everything
I will be anxious arms
Beside myself when there’s no one else
Would you be my answer, then?
Won’t you be my answer?
Say it again
I will be anxious arms
Beside myself when there’s no one else
Would you be my answer, then?
Won’t you be my answer?
Say it again
Say it again
Say it again
Say it again
(And you give)
And you give what you have and it’s all that you’ve got
(What you have)
You hope it’s enough but you know that it’s not
(And you say)
And you say, «Well, please, don’t worry.»
(And you tear)
And you tear it apart and you count up the cost
(It apart)
Your head swims, it all gets lost
(And you say)
And you say, «There is no hurry.»
(And you give)
And you give what you have and it’s all that you’ve got
(What you have)
You hope it’s enough but you know that it’s not
(And you say)
And you say…
I will be anxious arms
Beside myself when there’s no one else
Would you be my answer, then?
Won’t you be my answer?
Say it again
I will be anxious arms
Beside myself when there’s no one else
Would you be my answer, then?
Won’t you be my answer?
Say it again
