(Kirsty MacColl/Mark E. Nevin)

I want to shake up this world
And not to feel so useless
And I long to wake up happy
And not to feel so hopeless
I want arms that never held me
To pull me to my senses
And wrap themselves around me
Oh, please let it come true
There's only one thing for me
Darling, darling, darling
You know it's you

I want someone up here beside me
To wake up in heaven with all my worries behind me
That's what I'd love to do
There is something I have seen
A vision in my dreams
Who only comes it seems to tell me
What I already knew
There's only one thing that can save me now
And baby you know it's you

Ah -- d'you ever see just what I see?
My whole life just flashed in front of me
All my fears, all my mistakes
The heart that sings before it breaks
Oh I want arms that never held me
To wrap themselves around me
And not to let me down too gently
I need something to look forward to
There's only one thing that will do
And you know darling you know it's you
