MISSY HIGGINS lyrics : "Sweet Arms Of A Tune"

He told her when she played
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.
