far across the ocean wide
so the story is often told
there’s a land of peace and quiet
where time is still and love is bold
if you tread that holy ground
each instant remains new
the closest yet that I have found
is in the arms of only you
holding you close to me
kissing me the way you do
yeah tonight I long to be
in the arms of only you
in the arms of only you
since I first beheld your face
calmly regarding me
you have never left that place
deep inside the heart of me
you are with me all day long
no matter what I do
and I know where I belong
in the arms of only you
holding you………
like a play without a script
like a song without a tune
like a day without the sun
I am nothing without you
so now as the sun goes down
and the work’s no longer new
my body longs to rest a while
in the arms of only you
holding you….
