When You Held Me In Your Arms

I have never found someone to love me like you did
When I was green just seventeen not much more than a kid
Tired scared and lonely I was running from the night
You gave me shelter from the storm and arms to hold me tight

The city lights were bright and cold and you were warm and kind
I felt safe behind your door and happy for the time
And still believing moving was a way of being free
I left your loving arms behind but not your memory

Oh Lord the way you've made me feel when you held me in your arms
I could leave the world behind and walk among the stars
Loving you was heaven to my young and hungry heart
Oh Lord the way you've made me feel when you held me in your arms

The years and beers and miles have all left their mark on me
I'm older and I'm wiser but I'm far from being free
Many nights I've slept beside a road that never ends
And many times I've wished that I were in your arms again

I wonder where are you are tonight I'll bet you're not alone
You're not the kind to be without a husband and a home
I hope he knows how rare it is to find someone like you
I don't know if I will again I can only hope I'll do

Oh Lord the way you've made me feel when you held me in your arms
I could leave the world behind and walk among the stars
Loving you was heaven to my young and hungry heart
Oh Lord the way you've made me feel when you held me in your arms

Oh Lord the way you've made me feel when you held me in your arms
Oh Lord the way you've made me feel oh Lord the way you've made me feel
Oh Lord the way you've made me feel when you held me in your arms
