about

Virtual Arms is a song that laments on the dichotomy of distanced relationships in a world where we can constantly connect through technology.

lyrics

My face lights up but it's not the same
Things feel different in the virtual space
I look into your eyes, all I see are pixels
Why can we only talk when I have a good signal

Take me back take me back take me back
To the days I took for granted
Not you or the emotions
Just the feeling of your hand in
Mine

Will you hold me in your virtual arms
Your arms
To keep me close even if we're far
We're far
Oh I'll hold you in my virtual arms
My arms
Feel you close even if we're far
We're far
I'm trying
Oh I'm trying
For you

Will people reach out even though it's not planned
Listen to them in the palm of my hand
We will tell stories of different times
And say we should talk about every night

Notifications are digital stones
Nobody's Juliet or Romeo
Facetiming you on my shattered phone screen
Cool how the pixels can still set the scene

Distance between us starting to grow
Not an excuse when we all have our phones
Would you still call me so you don't feel far
Look up and share a gaze at the stars

Used to ask your place or mine
Now it's hard to find the time to call

Hold me in your virtual arms
Your arms
Keep me close even if we're far
We're far
Oh I'll hold you in my virtual arms
My arms
Feel you close even if we're far
We're far

Oh will hold each other in our virtual arms
