Lyrics Jens Lekman

Jens Lekman

Your Arms Around Me

Was slicing up an avocado

When you came up behind me

With your quiet brand new sneakers

Your reflection I did not see

It was the hottest day in August

And we were heading for the sea

For a second my mind started drifting

You put your arms around me

You put your arms around me

You put your arms around

Blood sprayed on the kitchen sink

Whats this? I had time to think

I see the tip of my index finger

My mind is slowly creating a link

From your mouth speaks your lovely voice

The best comments I've ever heard

Oh honey you've cut off your finger

I bet that's gotta hurt

You put your arms me

You put your arms me

You put your arms around

I must've passed out on the porch

Id never seen so many bright stars

When I wake up I'm in the waiting room

Of the local ER

My hand is wrapped in toilet paper

And my shirts all blood red

I see you standing there like an angel

And I say baby I must be dead

You put your arms around me

You put your arms around me

You put your arms around me
