I wake
in your arms
So warm and tender
Holding you close
Oh, I remember
Every whispered word
The look in your eyes
Love shining in mine
That I can't disguise I
watch you sleeping
Your heart beating beneath my hand
I close my eyes, try to understand
Am I dreaming of another time and place
I reach out and softly touch your face You
open your eyes
Smile into mine
Whisper words as old as time
A gentle touch
A breathless kiss
I've never known a love like this Safe
in the shelter of your arms
I'll hold you tight
I'll keep you warm
Far away from the world outside
Far from broken tears we've cried Come
to me my darling
Let me take your cares away
Wake with me in the soft light
Of a brand new day
Come to me darling
Let me make you smile again
Come to me and hold me tight
When the world is closing in Joni
