When Your Arms Were Around
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
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
