Devon Halliday - On His Arm

On his arm, I will look for you
And when he sleeps I will think of you
And in his eyes I'll see a wishing well in spite of you

He's a man so he shelters me
Telling strangers how he fell for me
I'm in the kitchen slipping soap under my wedding ring

Now he speaks your name so carelessly
Scanned the crowd the day he married me
I meant to linger on the threshold but he carried me

I can be loved I can be loved
I can be loved I can be loved

I check the oven, I don't charge my phone
Second Christmas in his sister's home
Her three kids are on the mantel dressed in monochrome

His hands are steady as he pours my drink
He's talking tickets down to New Orleans
Did you ever get back there, did it ever make you think of me?

I can be loved I can be loved
I can be loved I can be loved

You would talk about a field somewhere
Where you'd lie back and I'd let down my hair
And when we die I swear to god I'm gonna meet you there

I'll give him my number, what have I got to lose
I'll give him anything I saved for you
Maybe you'll see me on his arm one day
I hope you do
