Hold Up My Arms

[Verse 1]
Girl, I'd be lying if I promised you
That every word I ever said was true
But I can promise you this
I'm gonna fall, blown over like a ship at sea
By the howling sins of history
Oh, but don't you forget

[Chorus]
To hold up my arms
Like Moses in the desert
When the battle ran long
Hold up my arms
We can go at this together
When my arms aren't strong

[Verse 2]
I want you to know
That I'm prouder than a peacock, babe
You light me up just like a birthday cake
When you walk in the room
And I, I just wanna make you proud
So, baby, when I let you down
What I need you to do

[Chorus]
Is hold up my arms
Like Moses in the desert
When the battle ran long
And hold up my arms
We can go at this together
When my arms aren't strong
When my arms aren't strong

[Verse 3]
And girl, I'd be lying if I promised you
That every word I ever said was true
But I can promise you this
That I'll do my best
To try and do my very best for you
That's the very best that I can do
It's the best I can give

[Chorus]
So hold up my arms
I said hold up my arms
Like Moses in the desert
When the battle ran long
Hold up my arms
We can go at this together
When my arms aren't strong
When my arms aren't strong
