Everything ain't what it seems, in this world of broken dreams
And the things they tried to teach you sure ain't what you've seen
But you make it all seem right, when you whisper in the night
Won't you wrap those colored arms around me, hold me tight
Hold me near, thru the years, thru the fears, thru the tears
Well it makes me wanna shout, with the crap their dishin' out
You're the only one that seems to make it all work out
And you're always by my side, puttin up with foolish pride
When the day to day fiascos all get multiplied
You're the heart, you're the soul, when the world takes its toll

The loads gettin' lighter when I'm in your arms
Just squeeze a little tighter when i'm in your arms
In your arms, In your arms

With my back against the wall, well you keep me standing tall
When I stumble, you are always there to break my fall
When i'm far away from home, i can call you on the phone
Well i hear your voice and suddenly i'm not alone
All the words thats you say, makes the miles drift away

Cause the loads gettin' lighter when I'm in your arms
Just squeeze a little tighter when i'm in your arms
Cause it all seems so easy, when i'm in your arms
Just hold me tight and squeeze me, when i'm in your arms
In your arms

You take me, far away from there, when you hold me in your arms

Everything ain't what it seems, in this world of broken dreams
And the things they tried to teach you sure ain't what you've seen
In the dark, in the night, in your arms, its alright
You're the heart, you're the soul, when the world takes its toll
 

Cause the loads gettin' lighter when I'm in your arms
Just squeeze a little tighter when i'm in your arms
Cause it all seems so easy, when i'm in your arms
Just hold me tight and squeeze me, when i'm in your arms
 

Cause the loads gettin' lighter when I'm in your arms
Just squeeze a little tighter when i'm in your arms
Cause it all seems so easy, when i'm in your arms
Just hold me tight and squeeze me, when i'm in your arms
In your arms In your arms In your arms In your arms
