Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight

It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight

Exactly what was it that you said? I think we are all dying to know that.

I keep looking for something I can't get
Broken hearts, they're all around me
And I don't see an easier way, to get out of this
Her diary sits by the bedside table
The curtains are closed, the cat's in the cradle
Who would have thought that a boy like me could come to this

In descript and blatantly stalk-y. Nice touch with the weird cats in the cradle reference. The weird vibe you are putting out is something special.

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been some kind of kiss
I should have walked away
I should have walked away

Did you die pre or post kiss. I think we need a little clarification on this. And I thought you just told us it was what she said.

Is there any just cause for feeling like this?
On the surface I'm a name on a list
I try to be discreet, but then blow it again
I've lost and found it's my final mistake
She's loving by proxy, no give and all take
'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy, one too many times

There is a fine line between discreet love and a restraining order. I think you may have walked past that line. What is loving by proxy? And does the Fantasy line mean this is all fake?

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been some kind of kiss
I should have walked away
I should have walked away

I should have commented on this last chorus. Yes, walking away is better than death. Thanks for the insight. Although you had it coming, Creeper.

It was a long hot night, she made it easy
She made it feel right
But now it's over, the moment has gone
I followed my hands to my head, I know I was wrong

And exactly what made it feel right? I followed my hands to my head? I don’t want to touch that one.


Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been some kind of kiss
I should have walked away
I should have walked away

Aside from the stalking and complete absurdity this song sucked. But you already knew that one.

    Oh, I don't think you want to start critiquing lyrics. I actually find very few songs that give up rhyming for intelligence.
