Story Behind The Song
MY USUAL M.O.
I HAVE MUSIC IN MIND FOR A SONG.
I GO FOR A LONG WALK AND WRITE LYRICS.
I COME HOME AND RECORD THE SONG.
I USED TO QUESTION WHY IT WORKS.
I NO LONGER QUESTION...I JUST DO IT...

Lyrics
My life is on the road
Sometimes I'm far from home
The miles go drifting by
Now keep this thought in mind
I know it's getting late
Can you stay up and wait?
Girl, I want to be in your arms tonight
Tell me that you are only mine
I promise that I'll stay this time
Girl, I want to be in your arms tonight
You'll say I love you just like this
Greet me with a warm, gentle kiss
Girl, I want to be in your arms tonight
The towns look all the same
I know each one by name
I've got 10 miles to go
I hope I miss the snow
I've made these careful plans
I'll do the best I can
Girl, I want to be in your arms tonight
Tell me that you are only mine
I promise that I'll stay this time
Girl, I want to be in your arms tonight
You'll say I love you just like this
Greet me with a warm, gentle kiss
Girl, I want to be in your arms tonight
Now it's time I admit the truth
It's hard being away from you
It's not going to be forever
Pretty soon we'll be together
Girl, I want to be in your arms tonight
