Lagunita

A cruel wind swept the horizon Blew off my armor, and I woke up with nothing The angel I wrestled in darkness He's pulling his socks on And withholding my blessing It never occurred to me That grief should refer to something bad that happened And maybe you're broken cause you lost someone Tell me you care for me, tell me a secret that you've half forgotten Thieving and dying in the arms of love, in the arms of love I wandered off from so many parties When I couldn't stand up to polite conversation Then came to in the dry lagunita Where I brushed myself off and found my way home again It never occurred to me That grief should refer to something bad that happened And maybe you're broken cause you lost someone Tell me you care for me, tell me a secret that you've half forgotten Thieving and dying in the arms of love, in the arms of love I'm growing soft in my old age I go where I'm wanted, I leave before closing And I've learned to love the sinner and the sin See the brush in the painting, taste the calf in the gelatin But it never occurred to me That grief should refer to something bad that happened And maybe you're broken cause you lost someone Tell me you care for me, tell me a secret that you've half forgotten Thieving and dying in the arms of love, in the arms of love In the arms of love
