Lie In Arms
from Instincts by Antiskeptic
lyrics
WE SURE HAD OUR TIME SOAKED IN THE SUN
CANDLELIGHT, LAPPING WAVES, ZINC FACES
BUT THE LIVES THAT WE LEAD
THE BOTH OF US
PUT A MATCH TO THE MEMORIES ON PAGES
WE BOTH HAD HANDS TO HOLD
EVEN THOUGH WE’D SOMEHOW KNOW
WE WOULD LIE IN ARMS AGAIN
YEAH AND WE WERE YOUNG ENOUGH TO START AGAIN
YEAH AND WE HELD ROSES WRAPPED IN CELLOPHANE
RIGHT ON TIME TEN YEARS TOO LATE
ON WHIM AND A PRAYER I PENNED A NOTE
AND WITH A PULSE IN MY MOUTH I MAILED IT
IT READ OF FUTURES AND STORIES UNFORETOLD
MY NERVOUS HAND WONDERED IF YOU WOULD TAKE IT
CANDLELIGHT, LAPPING WAVES, ZINC FACES
BUT THE LIVES THAT WE LEAD
THE BOTH OF US
PUT A MATCH TO THE MEMORIES ON PAGES
WE BOTH HAD HANDS TO HOLD
EVEN THOUGH WE’D SOMEHOW KNOW
WE WOULD LIE IN ARMS AGAIN
YEAH AND WE WERE YOUNG ENOUGH TO START AGAIN
YEAH AND WE HELD ROSES WRAPPED IN CELLOPHANE
RIGHT ON TIME TEN YEARS TOO LATE
ON WHIM AND A PRAYER I PENNED A NOTE
AND WITH A PULSE IN MY MOUTH I MAILED IT
IT READ OF FUTURES AND STORIES UNFORETOLD
MY NERVOUS HAND WONDERED IF YOU WOULD TAKE IT
