Jens Lekman Your Arms Around Me Lyrics

Violin Intro (also used in chorus)
I 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;
(Chorus)
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 softest words ever spoken
what's broken can always be fixed
whats fixed will always be----
(Chorus)
bro--ken--
you put your arms around
me---------------
you put your arms around
me---------------
you put your arms around
me---------------
you put your arms around....
(Piano break at 2:43)
....i must've passed out on the porch
dreamt i was carried in a kangaroo's pouch
when i wake up im in the waiting room
on a dirty hospital couch
my hand is wrapped in toilet paper
and my body's wrapped in debris
sitting next to me reading the paper
i put your arm on my knee....
(Repeat Chorus for outro)
