Arms

Found on Horizontal Fall.

You say that they are holding you down
Seems quite hard if I'm not around
Still you think that they're in the way
I always thought that you couldn't swim
That's why I was first to jump in
I never dreamed of causing you harm
I thought that you knew these arms
Were waiting, reaching out to pull you closer
Hold you to me, why'd you run away
Come back to these arms
Come home to these arms
Now each hour of the day takes you further away from these arms

So now we are two voices alone
With arms too weak to pick up the phone
And every ring just sounds an alarm
And still these arms are waiting
Reaching out to hold you closer
Hold you to me why'd you run away
Come back to these arms
Come home to these arms
Now each hour of the day takes you further away from these arms
