Arms Around Your Love Lyrics

Chris Cornell

With his arms around your love
Oh no, here comes the pain that you can't ignore
With his arms around your girl
He'll do all of the things you didn't do before
You had every chance, but you closed the door
Now you're just gonna have to take it
(Cause if you didn't know)
She's gonna make you pay for it
(At a price you can't afford)
You're just gonna have to take it
With his arms around your love (x3)
Oh, yeah
Pretend that you don't mind
But you know everything that you left behind
And it would have been alright
If you'd gave half of the praise that you held inside
You thought she'd hang around for the ride
Now you're just gonna have to take it
(Cause if you didn't know)
She's gonna make you pay for it
(At a price you can't afford)
You're just gonna have to take it
With his arms around your love (x3)
Coming clean feels so dangerous
Just a little bit would have been enough
But you never said all the words caught in your head
As if your heart was dead
Well now its surely bled and broken up
And it would have been alright
If you'd gave half of the praise that you held inside
You thought she'd hang around for the ride
Now you're just gonna have to take it
(Cause if you didn't know)
She's gonna make you pay for it
(At a price you can't afford)
You're just gonna have to take it
With his arms around your love
