A. G. Cook
In Your Arms
Thought you’d show the way
And cut the fever with your love
But inside I changed
And feeling numb wasn’t enough

Finding sunlight
Spilling outside
But overlaid
You on my mind
Comfort my crying
But still alone

Holding something heavy
I’m half awake and in your arms
I can’t feel you hold me
Over something heavy
I’m half awake and in your arms

I lost, you replaced
And then all feeling fled my blood

Blinding sunlight
Hanging outside
But overlaid
You in my mind
On the wrong side
I feel alone
Holding something heavy
I’m half awake and in your arms
I can’t feel you hold me
Over something heavy
I’m half awake and in your arms

When I’m hard up
And I’m hungry
You stay
You come along
To carry something I can’t bear
