Lyrics
In Your Arms
Man:
You didn?t need a wedding gown, your wishes were simple and few.
Young and so eager for love, nothing else mattered to you.
I took your hand our eyes met, then you proudly said I do
You stole my heart completely, till my last breath I?ll love you.
Woman:
If I could live my life over, you?d remain my fantasy.
I would not need gold or diamonds, just a rose that you gave to me.
I?ve learned so much from you, your love has made me strong.
Your all I?ve ever needed, in your arms where I belong.
CHORUS
In your arms where I belong, (In your arms where I belong)
Till our last breath is taken we will never lose this love
as we grow old together, our precious love, will shine on through
(Will shine on through,) will shine on through.
Spoken:
Woman:
Till we move on one day to greener pastures
Man:
Till our tired old eyes close in sweet repose
Woman:
Till we reach that place where roses always bloom
Together:
I will hold you darling when you hold a rose.
CHORUS
will shine on through, will shine on through, will shine on through.
In your arms, In your arms, In your arms,
Man:
You didn?t need a wedding gown. You didn?t need no diamond ring.
All I ever needed was you Together: In Your Arms
