Well I'm walking on the floor
|
Hanging right round the door
|
Hoping you will come through
|
Wanting you to, sweat on my brow
|
I'm no saint
|
Nothing left but a bad excuse
|
The heat makes you do things
|
You might just not do
|
In your right mind
|
But you'll do what you do
|
You can be sure I'll be there
|
|
It's gonna take these arms of mine
|
All that they've got to hold onto you
|
All that I know is these arms of mine
|
Are willing to try to keep hold of you
|
Gonna take a whole, whole, whole lot
|
A whole, whole, whole lot
|
|
Well I'm walking the line
|
Between wrong and right
|
I could go either way
|
But now you don't want me to stay
|
You're so tired of waiting
|
Well I'm no saint
|
Tried to have my cake and eat it too
|
But nobody does what you do
|
Now another wins and I lose
|
I might deserve to
|
Now you'll do what you do
|
Might be too late but I'll tell you
|
|
It's gonna take these arms of mine
|
All that they've got to hold onto you
|
All that I know is these arms of mine
|
Are willing to try to keep hold of you
|
Gonna hold, hold, hold on
|
Hold, hold, hold on
|
|
