D-DU-UDU
 x2
Take  both my feet.
Tie  them.
Throw  me over.
 Will I still float?
 Will my heart sink?
Why  have I held on  so long?
 I still  don't know.
 And it's not  like I have anyone to show
 Or do I want to?
 These arms this heart  these eyes
 Have seen  almost everything.
 But not  you. But not  you.
 But I want  to.
Take  both my  hands.
Tie  them  behind my back
 To keep me from holding  from holding from  holding.
 But that's so  unlike myself.
 And it's not  like I have anyone to hold
 Or do I want to?
 These eyes this heart  these arms
 Have held  almost anything
 But not  you. But not  you.
 But I want  to.
 Oooooooooooh...  Ooooooooooooh...  (X2)
 Why  do I need  to love someone?
 It's like  I was born not out  of legs
But  I was born  of arms.
 And it's not  like I have anyone to love.
 Should I want to?
 These eyes these arms  this heart
 Has loved  almost everything
 But not  you. But not  you.
 But I want  to.
 Oooooooooooh...  Ooooooooooooh...
 Oooooooooooh...  Ooooooooooooh...  Ooooh Oooh Ooooh
