8 Arms to Hold You - The Squid Song

Bryn Portas sings an acoustic love ballad (that I wrote) from the perspective of a giant squid.
Lyrics:

VERSE 1:
You're a deep sea behemoth
But that never bothered you
I'm a giant sea creature
But babe, you saw through
'Cos you're just like me
You're a giant squid too

VERSE 2:
You saw the gentler side in me
That others so rarely do
I have the largest eyes in all the sea
But all I see is you
Because you're just like me
You're a giant squid too

CHORUS:
8 arms to hold you
That's more than enough
But you can't put a number on us
'Cos our infatuation
Runs deeper than this ocean
We're tangled up in tentacles, in love

VERSE 3:
I'm holding you so close
You displayed, I unfurled
We're a two-strong squid squad
Against the world
'Cos you're just like me
You're a giant squid too

CHORUS:
8 arms to hold you
That's more than enough
But you can't put a number on us
'Cos our infatuation
Is deeper than this ocean
We're tangled up in tentacles, in love

BRIDGE:
So what if we're slippery?
So what if we're cold?
I'm never warmer
When i got you to hold

CHORUS:
8 arms to hold you
That's more than enough
But you can't put a number on us
'Cos our infatuation
Is deeper than this ocean
We're tangled up in tentacles, in love
