Only within the arms of someone you love
Can be achieved the sole goal of mankind
To grasp hold the gift that comes from above
To say “I love you” and see their face shine

Only within the arms of someone you love
Can sadness abide beyond what you can bear
So you let them soften the pain you’re made of
As you find comfort in their grip resting there

Only within the arms of someone you love
Can you be in a transcendent ecstasy
In paradise as pure as the holy white dove
The love in their eyes the only thing you see

Only in the arms of someone you love
Can dwell something fragile and yet so strong
Only in the arms of someone you love
Can echo the joys of your love’s beautiful song
