Hold You in My Arms

Lyrics

When you came to me
 With your bad dreams and your fears
 It was easy to see you'd been crying
 ♪
 Seems like everywhere you turn
 Catastrophe it reigns
 But who really profits from the dying?
 
 I could hold you in my arms
 I could hold you forever
 And I could hold you in my arms
 Oh I could hold you forever
 ♪
 When you kissed my lips
 With my mouth so full of questions
 My worried mind that you quiet
 
 Place your hands on my face
 Close my eyes and say
 That love is a poor man's food
 Don't prophesize
 I could hold you in my arms
 I could hold you forever
 And I could hold you in my arms
 Oh I could hold you forever
 ♪
 So now we see how it is
 This fist begets the spear
 Weapons of war
 Symptoms of madness
 Don't let your eyes refuse to see
 Don't let your ears refuse to hear
 Or you ain't never going to shake
 This sense of sadness
 ♪
 I could hold you in my arms
 I could hold on forever
 And I could hold you in my arms
 Oh I could hold on forever
 
 When you came to me
 With your bad dreams and your fears
 It was easy to see you'd been crying
 ♪
 Seems like everywhere you turn
 Catastrophe it reigns
 But who really profits from the dying?
 
 I could hold you in my arms
 I could hold you forever
 And I could hold you in my arms
 Oh I could hold you forever
 ♪
 When you kissed my lips
 With my mouth so full of questions
 My worried mind that you quiet
 
 Place your hands on my face
 Close my eyes and say
 That love is a poor man's food
 Don't prophesize
 I could hold you in my arms
 I could hold you forever
 And I could hold you in my arms
 Oh I could hold you forever
 ♪
 So now we see how it is
 This fist begets the spear
 Weapons of war
 Symptoms of madness
 Don't let your eyes refuse to see
 Don't let your ears refuse to hear
 Or you ain't never going to shake
 This sense of sadness

 Oh I could hold on forever
