Your Swaying Arms is the first single from the album Fellow Hoodlums by the Scottish rock band Deacon Blue.

The releases contain two B-sides, "Fourteen Years" and "Faifley", both of which are rough, bluesy songs that Ricky Ross speaks and sings in a deep, raspy voice.

The 10" vinyl version, surprisingly, contains techno dance remixes of the otherwise placid track.
