Never in My Arms, Always in My Heart

[Verse 1]
By then she'd sang in every bar
And when the world said no she'd ask the stars
If they'd ever thought of setting her up
And he was only half a man
He never really watched the news

[Verse 2]
I guess they fell in love, if you can call it that
And for a couple of years, how smooth things went, you know
Desperate people, they go to desperate measures
But she so badly wanted kids
She said, "It's what I'm meant to do"

[Chorus 1]
And he'd tell her, "All I want to do is stand next to you
All I want to do is stand next to you"
Well you need to get on top of me
(All I want to do is stand next to you)
And do this thing before I'm fifty
And dry as a bone
(All I want to do is stand next to you)
I may as well be alone
Oh, I hate you so

[Bridge]
Bill and I, we were sitting there
When the doc came in
I gripped my chair, he said
"I'm afraid I have some bad news
Though he'll never be in your arms
He'll always be in your heart"

[Chorus 2]
Oh, if I could only give my breath to you
Watch you crawl around and stand next to you
Oh, if I could only give my breath to you
Watch you crawl around and stand next to you
Oh, if I could only give my breath to you
Watch you crawl around and stand right there next to you

[Outro]
To you, oh da-da-da-da-da-da
Oh, da-da-da-da-da
Oh
Never in my arms, always in my heart
Never in my arms
