The opening song and single from The Remote Part, this fittingly begins to explore an autobiographical theme that’s present throughout the record. Lead singer Roddy Woomble discusses his youth, musical career, and place in the world many times on this record, but on You Held The World In Your Arms,...
[Verse 1]
Every face
Even the one you saw yesterday
It looks different today
Cause everything's changed since yesterday
In every possible way
Things seem different today
Not like yesterday
[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]
You held the world in your arms tonight
And what if you held the world in your arms?
[Verse 2]
When you're secure do you feel much safer?
But days never change and it's three years later
It's like your life
Hasn't changed and it's three years late
How does it feel to be three years late?
And watching your youth drift away
What seems different, seems different today?
What seems different, seems different today?
[Pre-Chorus]
Is consideration
More like an exception
Of consideration
[Chorus]
You held the world in your arms tonight
And what if you held the world in your arms?
You held the world in your arms tonight
And what if you held the world in your arms?
[Bridge]
Tonight
Tonight
[Chorus]
'Cause you held the world in your arms tonight
And what if you held the world in your arms?
'Cause you held the world in your arms tonight
And what if you held the world in your arms?
