Let Me Put My Arms Around You
All washed up with no place to go
Am I to walk these naked streets
For a hundred years or more?
I had a taste of just how good it could be;
There's some place just beyond my grasp
Where I'll find sanctuary

Let me put my arms around you
Like I done when we were young

How will I find my heart's desire?
I'll jump out of the frying pan
And into your arms
Come on surprise me, go on, tantalize me
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
I'll find my sanctuary

Let me put my arms around you
Like I done when we were young

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
