Even The Darkness Has Arms Lyrics - Sleeping Operator - Barr Brothers

I was holding my breath when the tightrope walker slipped into the moon glow 

Saying all my children, follow me 

Maybe it's time to go 

You can be chrome when you're wise 

You can be wise when you're blue 

And baby, if I have 

Then I have for you 

Bribing the jury to keep me in jail, singing "Tea for the Tillerman" 

And although I lie fantastically, I swore an oath on my history 

It's a miracle I can see 

You can be wrong when you're right 

Even when you're right on cue 

And if I die tonight

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Then I die for you 

Calling on those that call me son 

Great-grandson and grandson 

Great uncles, aunts, and relatives 

To judge what I have done 

Wanna make it right by you 

Even if it's all I do 

And if it's all I do 

Then I do it for you 

People will raise a whole lotta hell about the water in the windmill 

And although I stab chaotically 

It hurts no one but me 

Even the darkness has arms 

But they ain't got you 

And baby, I have it 

And I have you, too 

Photos 

And a light in the window to pass the night through 

May be so uncertain but what can I do 

Keeping it on, keeping it on 

And I know I like it but what does that prove 

Sometimes I worry I don't know how to love you 

I bring to you with reverent hands 

All the books that my love abides 

The kind woman that my passion wore 

Like the shoreline wears the tides 

Maybe the water went dry 

Keeping an eye on you 

And with an eye on you 

It could drown me, too 

People will raise a whole lotta hell about the water in the windmill 

And although I stab chaotically 

I swore an oath on my history 

It's a miracle I can see 

Even the darkness has arms 

But they ain't got you 

And baby, I have it 

And I have you, too 

And a light in the window to pass the night through 

May be so uncertain but what can I do 

Keeping it on, keeping it on 

And I know I like it but what does that prove 

Sometimes I worry I don't know how to love you
