Hold Me In Your Arms Like You Did Before
You’re my world, for you are everything to me.
When I awaken, Darling, do you know
how long I sometimes wait that I might see
your eyes come open? How they used to glow
with love for me! But I’ve been noticing
these days and nights that something in your eyes
is missing, and I keep remembering
the way you onced embraced me at sunrise.
What happened to the way you took my hand
and smiled at me with such warmth in your heart?
I thought there could not be a bond as grand
as what we shared. My dear, should you depart,
my world will shatter. Love can shine once more.
Hold me in your arms like you did before!

Inspired by listening again to all three songs:
You've Lost that Loving Feeling, You're My World, & Anyone Who Had a Heart
