Wide Open Arms

It's a weird feeling coming over me

Somehow this nice sweet girl

Makes me feel like I need

Something I can never have

Something I left broken

It's like a bad sort of good dream

Like a bind left unspoken

Wide open arms

So say the management

They can be so cold

And here I am again.

Do I dare be so bold

Another day, another week it's seeming

I'm like a lost man looking for light

And still there is this growing feeling

To try and find an exit light

Somewhere with warm lodging

Sweet love through the night

Where is the feeling I was dodging

Wide open arms

So say the management

They can be so cold

But now I lost my last defense

I start to feel so old

Kissing was the start of it

Or maybe just a song

Now I'm thinking I am full of shit

When I play to my throngs

I'm gluten free but weighed down by

The need to play along

Just a sweet harmony, but now I

See

Wide open arms

So said the management,

They have become so cold

How can I earn back that

Home that I willingly sold

I guess this is the Californian hotel

I guess the big birdies were right

I awoke in a heavenly love nest

But the sun was shining way too bright

Now I'm sprinting down the hallways

Chasing ever after that olden light

Security imprisoned in the theory of always, right

Wide open arms

Are hotter than dry ice

That's too hot for cold

Ben and Andy tried to warn me

But I thought my debt was owed

Wide open arms

So said the management

Will quickly become cold

Why, oh why, did I go do that

I guess I wanted everyone to hold

But now wide open arms

Have become so cold

Wide open arms

Remind me what I sold
