Your Arms

Constant sorrow and searching within
At every turn lies another dead end.
Give up on love before the rush of the fall,
Walk away and wash my hands of it all.
How can you see me if I can't see myself?
How can you love when there's nothing left?

It feels like home wrapped up in your arms.
Draw me near.
Dry my tears.
Calm my fears.
Hold me and never let go.

It wasn't until I turned from myself,
That I found me in someone else.
Before you came I turned my back on possibility,
I had the wings, but it was you that set me free.
I'm at the point of total surrender, the point of no return.
Stripping it down and baring it all, so much left to learn.

It feels like home wrapped up in you arms.
Draw me near.
Dry my tears.
Calm my fears.
Hold me and never let go.

I fall victim, you expose and complete,
An enduring love, an effortless feat.
Decisions made simple, choices become clear,
My world in black and white whenever you are near.
You take me as I come, a scarred and hesitant heart,
You want what is left to take and leave your mark.

It feels like home wrapped up in your arms.
Draw me near.
Dry my tears.
Calm my fears.
Hold me and never let go...

Calm my fears.
Hold me and never let go....

Hold me and never let go.



"Stay with me; don't be afraid... You will be safe with me."
-1 Samuel 22:23
