About the Artist
Lyrics
We had a good thing, it was a blast That was a long time in the past You went through changes, I walked away And I have regretted that to this day I may not always have quite so much hair But what you saw in me will hopefully always be there I'll never hurt you again, I swear So put your arms around me Your dinner lady arms Put your arms around me Your dinner lady arms I couldn't figure out where your figure had gone I thought that I could live without you honey, I was so wrong Put your arms around me Your dinner lady arms Your dinner lady arms Forgive and forget, I caused you pain And find it in your heart to start again I know I'll never be your Mr. Right But I'm happy to be your Mr. That'll Do For Tonight And I'll never let you out of my sight So put your arms around me Your dinner lady arms Put your arms around me Your dinner lady arms I couldn't figure out where your figure had gone I thought that I could live without you honey, I was so wrong Put your arms around me Your dinner lady arms I may be light years past on my sell-by date But there's life in the old dog yet honey, it's not too late Put your arms around me Your dinner lady arms
