Return (to my arms)

I touched your shoulder
All you did was smile
Taking my arm and letting go
I smile sadly, reaching out again…
And it feels like…

(chorus)
We’ve been gone forever now,
And time seems to have stopped.
I wrap my arms around you,
but you don’t feel me there.
All I want is your love,
wondering when you’ll return…
(…to my arms)

Wandering, aimless, lost and dead
You tried to push me away.
But still, I am near.
You don’t want to hurt me,
But, darlin’, you already have.
Does it look like I care?
Because…

(chorus)

You love me
Want me
Body, mind, and soul
And, honey, I love you too.
There’s nothing you could say that
Would shove me away
And it feels as if…

(chorus)

Pulling at these strings,
I can’t bare to see you cry
You’ve been so strong, I can’t stand it
I know you feel like a puppet
Lost in your mind
And I can help you with that,
Please, babe, let me help…

(chorus) x2?

Please, just let me help…
That’s all I want…

We’ve been gone forever now,
I wrap my arms around you
(Wondering when you’ll return…)
…to my arms

Written for Cat, who tried to push me away, though I stubbornly stayed by her side.

I love you,
