When they told me to relax
To think of the place I felt most calm
I knew just where to go.
The only place I remember pure bliss
Was in your arms that chilled night.
When I didn’t feel the stress of the day
Or the bite of the air.
Never had I felt less alone,
Like I had all I ever needed
Right in front of me.
And although you didn’t see the gleam in my eye,
Or feel the rush of my beating heart,
I sure felt it, and knew
I would never forget it.
Because your arms took away my pain,
Your strength of care silenced my worry,
And your heart taught me how to love.
