In Your Arms Again
King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson
Don't wanna do that thing you do
You do your crazy thing
But it's over I'm walking away
I've opened the door
I can't stay more more
Baby it's over
My second thoughts are churning in my head
It's pounding again
Don't wanna lose coz baby I know we can win
Oh oh
Chorus:
But if I turn around too fast
Catch me I'm falling
In your arms again
Don't think it's gonna last
But I don't wanna doubt it
In your arms again
Don't wanna go through all the hurt and pain
I'm drowning again
But if I leave baby I will go insane
Oh oh
Repeat Chorus
In Your Arms Again
