lyrics

I Take You in my Arms

It’s been a perfect afternoon
and you’ve been perfect company
and in the evening’s easy light
you’re sitting closer now I see
and so I have to speak my part
and take this opportunity
to say I knew right from the start
how this would be

I think we know how this will go
how somehow hands will find each other
though I’ll protest that I must go
We both know that we’ll end up lovers
and I’ll protest but not too much
this new proximity of touch
although I knew right from the start
how this would be

I’m not some foolish débutante
you’re not some ingenue
and I’ll admit to impure thoughts
since I set eyes on you
But then you never know
how these things are gonna go
until you try
and there’s no reason why
I take you in my arms

I’m not some foolish débutante
you’re not some ingenue
and I’ll admit to impure thoughts
since I set eyes on you
But then you never know
how these things are gonna go
until you try
and there’s no reason why
I take you in my arms

Her continuously evolving musical personality is proof that a freedom from artistic restraints can sometimes produce a unique, enthralling and original voice with a rare honesty. ... more
