In Your Arms

If life was dreams and fantasies it never would have ended 

If letting you go was honesty I wish I had pretended

‘Cause situations tell a tale but don't explain desire

And sometimes what we want the most is not what we inspire

 

I don't know why I think of you late into the night

And I wonder who lies in your arms tonight

 

The radio plays soft and low a song that we once knew

And memories wash over me but we both know what's true

Our love was sacrificed to lust selfish mad desires

But underneath that ancient dust is still a smouldering fire

 

I don't know why I think of you late into the night 

And I wonder who lies in your arms tonight

 

I'm sending you this message out there on the breeze 

Hear my song in whispered word lamenting on my knees 

Our love was sacrificed to trust, selfish mad desires

And sometimes what we want the most is still a smouldering fire
