I was stone cold convinced
|
You were holding me down
|
I could chase my wildest dreams
|
With you not around
|
But I was crazy to think
|
That I could hold my own
|
'Cause I started to crumble
|
The minute you were gone
|
|
When your arms were around
|
They held my world together
|
They kept me safe and sound
|
Right through the roughest weather
|
Guess I just lost touch
|
With the man in me you found
|
I was strong as I could be
|
When your arms were around
|
|
I've done everything
|
I said that I would
|
But you know somehow the good life
|
Don't feel like it should
|
So this ladder that I've climbed
|
I'd gladly back down
|
If I could just have one night
|
When your arms were around
|
|
When your arms were around
|
They held my world together
|
They kept me safe and sound
|
Right through the roughest weather
|
Guess I just lost touch
|
With the man in me you found
|
I was strong as I could be
|
When your arms were around
|
|
I was strong as I could be
|
When your arms were around
|
