Come Into My Arms
Bad Boy Joe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The other night when we kissed
You told me I was yours forever
But when I woke up the next morning, you were gone
Come back baby
Come into my arms

You, you showed me how love could be
Just show me how much you need
You've always been by my side
Oh, baby that's no lie
'Cause I, I've always been true to you
I've always loved one, that's true
Oh baby, can't you see that it's you
You know that I love you so

[Chorus: x 2]
Come into my arms baby, I know how you feel
Come into my arms baby, this love for you is real
I've always been too much for you it burns inside
To wake up in the morning and you're not by my side

You, you shared your thoughts with me
You shared your secrecies
And oh, how that makes me feel
Listen baby, lets be forever
'Cause I, I know I will always be good
I know in my heart I should
I'll never ever do you wrong
My love for you is strong

[Chorus: x 2]

You were not by my side
Why aren't you here

We, we can't just let this die
You gotta give our love a try
Oh please be by my side
Don't even begin to cry

'Cause I, I'm waiting to be with you
Just give me the chance to prove
That I'm the only one for you
You know I was the one

[Chorus: x 2]

You were not by my side, your not by my side
Why aren't you here
So please be by my side
Please be by my side
Come into my arms baby, I know how you feel
This love for you is real
It burns inside

I know you're sorry you did me wrong




But until then I'll remember
You'll be back, back into my arms
