Your Swaying Arms

Your Swaying Arms
Send me back all the things she ever wrote
Tell me secrets of her days when she was young
Show me nights when she laughed, so innocent
I’ll be happy waiting til they come
Love the people that she smiled upon
Walk with me on the streets where she once stood
Say if it could be that we once passed like strangers
Long before the love we ever knew

Cos I’ve been longing for a new world waiting
I’ve been hoping to be sent
I’ve been picking up all the love we squandered
Until you hold me in your swaying arms again
One day I can see us walking
Arm and arm in sheltered Kelvin Way
Talking and tripping and teasing
And heading for the best part of the day
When your head falls softly on our pillow
No fear will make you cry or turn you grey
And we will wake so early in the morning
Knowing you’ll never, never, never go away
Cos I’ve been longing for a new world waiting
I’ve been hoping to be sent
I’ve been picking up all the love we squandered
Until you hold me in your swaying arms again
I’ve been longing for a new world waiting
I’ve been hoping to be sent
I’ve been picking up all the love we squandered
Until you hold me in your swaying arms again
Until you rest me in your loving arms again

In your arms
In your swaying arms
Your swaying arms
Hold me, bless me now
Hold me, hold me now
Hold me, hold me, hold me
In your arms
Your swaying arms
Your swaying arms
Hold me now
