Arms

You left your black gloves on my table

You left your dark horse in the stable

Thinking of a way to get you to stay

And I'll promise to fight the wind and waves for you

I'm an owl with tired eyes

I'm the scarecrow in disguise

The absolute con

I would babe sing

When all I want to do is stay inside

And look out the window with you

There was a dead mouse in your arms

That was the moment that you lost your charm

No bear paw sitting in a jar

And your tree it never grew any leaves

Shake my arms shake my head

I fell asleep on your cobweb

And I'm turning from all the lights tonight

Saw you in a crowded bar pale with hungry eyes
