MISSY HIGGINS lyrics : "Sweet Arms Of A Tune"
Wings sprouted from her shoulder blades
And every bone inside her seemed to change
So on her fingers moved, over notes she hoped would soothe
His jagged soul caressing every groove
Oh and how she longed to say, that she'd missed his troubled ways
And if she could she'd do it all again
Cause sometimes every word has been used
And there's nothing left to do
But hold the one you can't have in the sweet arms of a tune
A year ago today New York City seemed to fall away
To leave only the bed in which they laid
But an island is just there
Oh and when the world came flooding back
Oh the pillars underneath them began to crack
Now he's sitting on her floor
She's playing all the minor chords
Wishing so damn hard he'd kiss her like before
Sometimes every word has been used
And there's nothing left to do
But hold the one you can't have in the sweet arms of a tune
Yeah hold the one you can't love in the sweet arms of a tune
Cause sometimes every inch of you is bruised
And there's nothing left to prove
So just hold the one you can't have in the sweet arms of a tune
Yeah hold the one you can't love in the sweet arms of a tune.
