Everlasting Arms Lyrics

Wasn't long ago I knew a place to rest my head

Soft hair on grizzled arms

Thought I saw a twinkle in those all-knowing eyes

You were holding on so tight

And I was leaning on the everlasting arms

But I don't know where they went

Can't seem to find my way back to them

Rock of ages how did you become

A cold and hardened face blocking out the sun

Have I been talking to an echo of my mind

I'll get my thoughts back on the road between the lines

And I was leaning on the everlasting arms

But I don't know where they went

Can't seem to find my way back to them

You can walk me back inside to where it all began

Tell me just how great it was right before it went to shit

You can walk around an empty garden for a mile

And still know nothing about who abandoned it

And I was leaning on the everlasting arms

But I don't know where they went

Can't seem to find my way back to them

Your love's a riddle

Like a parsnip

Like pretty blood

Like kissing stone lips

Your love's a bargain

But a hard one

I've played all my chips

Damn your bait and switch

And I was leaning on the everlasting arms

But I don't know where they went

Can't seem to find my way back to them

Wasn't long ago I knew a place to rest my head

Soft hair on grizzled arms
