In the Shelter of Your Arms

In this cold world no matter where I go the crowds, they're all the same. To them I'm just a pebble in the sand, a face without a name. Nobody gives a hang for what I say or do But you, and in the shelter of your arms I find peace and comfort and care For I am wanted there. In this cold world, you struggle to survive and sometimes, you can fall. You'd think someone would lend a helpin hand they'd sooner see you crawl. But just when life itself seems more than I can bare... You're there and in the shelter of your arms I find strength and comfort with care. For I am wanted there. Just give me one good reason to go on living. To keep on trying For what.?.I ask you for what? If not for you and all your love, to see me through. But just when life itself seems more than I can bare You're there and in the shelter of your arms I find strength and safety in them, I rise and start again.
