Lyrics Let Me Put My Arms Around You - Edwyn Collins

All washed up with no place to go.
Am I to walk these naked streets
For a hundred years or more?
I had a taste of just how good it could be;
There's some place just beyond my grasp
Where I'll find sanctuary.

Let me put my arms around you
Like I done when we were young.

How will I find my heart's desire?
I'll jump out of the frying pan
And into your arms.
Come on surprise me, go on, tantalize me.
Between the devil and the deep blue sea,
I'll find my sanctuary.

Let me put my arms around you
Like I done when we were young.

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la...
