Everything ain't what it seems In this world of broken dreams And the things they try to teach you Sure ain't what you've seen But you make it all seem right When you whisper in the night Won't you wrap those calming arms around me? Hold me tight Hold me near through the years Through the fears, through the tears
Well it makes you wanna shout With the crap they're dishin' out You're the only one it seems To make it all work out And you're always by my side Puttin' up with foolish pride When the day to day fiascos Only multiply You're the heart, you're the soul When the world takes it's toll
The load is getting lighter When I'm in your arms Just squeeze a little tighter When I'm in your arms In your arms In your arms
With my back against the wall When you keep standing tall When I stumble, you are Always there to break my fall When I'm far away from home I can call you on the phone When I hear your voice Then certainly I'm not alone All the words that you say Make the miles drift away
The load is getting lighter When I'm in your arms Just squeeze a little tighter When I'm in your arms 'Cause it all seems so easy When I'm in your arms Just hold me tight and squeeze me When I'm in your arms In your arms
You take me far away from there When you hold me in your arms right away, yeah!
SOLO
(Won't you hear me now?)
Everything ain't what it seems In this world of broken dreams And the things they try to teach you Sure ain't what you've seen In the dark, in the night In your arms, it's all right You're the heart, you're the soul When the world takes it's toll
The load is getting lighter When I'm in your arms Just squeeze a little tighter When I'm in your arms 'Cause it all seems so easy When I'm in your arms Just hold me tight and squeeze me When I'm in your arms The load is getting lighter When I'm in your arms Just squeeze a little tighter When I'm in your arms 'Cause it all seems so easy When I'm in your arms Just hold me tight and squeeze me When I'm in your arms In your arms In your arms In your arms In your arms
