Anxious Arms

The Jealous Sound

There was a guy making a plan

Find a girl and she'd understand

He'd say "please don't worry"



And this one was right

And that was 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



I said I will

I ask you please lie still

Your faith means everything

I will be anxious arms

Beside myself and there is no one else

Won't you be my answer?

Then won't you be my answer?

Say it again



The one thing that I protect

Well, don't you know

Well, 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



So unsure until tonight

Strong and pure and I know that it's right

Today is our whole life



You give what you have and it's all that you've got

You hope its enough but you know that it's not

And you say “please don't worry”



You tear it apart and you count up the cost

And your head swims, it all gets lost

And you say “there is no hurry”
