Here In My Arms

You could've been right here in my arms

Why did you lie to me

You said goodbye to me

And I'm still here holding on

Thinking about the day

When you went away

Felt like my old heart

Got blown apart

I can still taste your lips

Sweet caress of your fingertips

As I sing this song

How you've done me wrong

All of my friends say that maybe it's better this way

And all of those love songs got nothing on me anyway

You could've been right here in my arms

Why did you lie to me

You said goodbye to me

You could've been right here in my arms

Why did you have to go

Time never went this slow

And I'm still here holding on

Baby I've been hurting

I've been hurting all my life

I carry this burden

But were the only one that made me feel alive

I got lost in the city

I got lost at sea

I've been trying to find somebody

Who could bring you back home to me

All of my friends say that maybe it's better this way

And all of those love songs got nothing on me anyway

You could've been right here in my arms

Why did you lie to me

You said goodbye to me

You could've been right here in my arms

Why did you have to go

Time never went this slow

And I'm still here holding on

I can still see you when I close my eyes

And I can still hear you from a million miles

You could've been right here in my arms

Why did you lie to me

You said goodbye to me

You could've been right here in my arms

Why did you have to go

Time never went this slow

And I'm still here holding on
