when i had a million arms
i would wrap them around all your body parts
try to keep away all that could do you harm,
try to keep out sickness keep you warm.
but every time the going got tough
one by one they were falling off
while you were breaking your neck trying to keep your head up,
i was breaking my neck just to stick it out for you
while you were breaking your neck trying to keep your head up,
i was breaking my neck just to stick it out for you
while you were breaking your neck trying to keep your head up,
i was breaking my neck just to stick it out for you
while you were breaking your neck trying to keep your head up,
i was breaking my neck just to stick it out for you
and i know that we'd hang out every day
if i wasn't 100 miles away
from our tadpoles gathering in the creek
and our baby birds learning how to shriek
Riff 3x
all the eagles i still haven't seen
and the trees proudly alive and green
i could swear they are there just for you and me
whether friends or in love there's an indisputable beauty
but you were breaking your neck trying to keep your head up,
and i was breaking my neck just to stick it out for you
while you were breaking your neck trying to keep your head up,
i was breaking my neck just to stick it out for you
while you were breaking your neck trying to keep your head up,
Riff 6x
i was breaking my neck just to stick it out for you
while you were breaking your neck trying to keep your head up,
i was breaking my neck just to stick it out for you

if the distance between us becomes too strong
i will saturate silence with your songs
'cause you'd rub my back 'til my skin smoothed out
smoother than the glass that the sea spits out
Riff 2x
don't forget to take your shirt off, run into the water,
the birds are singing louder and the days are getting longer,
open up your hands and accept that this is ending,
nothing in this world is holier than friendship
