In These Arms
Bon Jovi/Musicfire.in Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You want commitment, and take a look into these eyes.
They burn with fire, Yeah, until the end of time.
And I would do anything, I'd beg, I'd steal,
I'd die to have you in theses arms tonight.

Baby I want you like the roses want the rain,
You know I need you like a poet needs the pain.
And I would give anything. My blood, my love, my life.
If you were in these arms tonight.

I'd hold you, I'd need you,
I'd get down on my knees for you.
And make everything alright,
If you were in these arms.
I'd love you, I'd please you,
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you.
And love you till the end of time,
if you were in these arms tonight.
Oh, yeah.

We stare at the sun, and we made a promise.
A promise this world would never blind us.
And these were our words.
Our words were our songs.
Our songs are our prayers.
These prayers keep me strong, and I still believe.
If you were in these arms.

I'd hold you, I'd need you,
I'd get down on my knees for you.
And make everything alright,
If you were in these arms.
I'd love you, I'd please you,
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you.
And love you till the end of time,
if you were in these arms tonight.

Your clothes are still scattered all over our room.
This whole place still smells like your cheap perfume.
Everything here reminds me of you.
There's nothing I wouldn't do.
And these were our words, they keep me strong, baby.

I'd hold you, I'd need you,
I'd get down on my knees for you.
And make everything alright,
If you were in these arms.
I'd love you, I'd please you,
I'd tell you that I'd never leave you.
And love you till the end of time,
if you were in these arms tonight.

If you were in these arms
Baby, like the roses need the rain.




Like the seasons need to change.

We've been through this all before a thousand times
Come on, come on, come on, tell me what's on your mind
Doesn't matter, baby, what I say
It all amounts to nothing anyway

When push comes to shove
It's never enough
It always comes down to something

How could I live?
Why would I try?
I've been learning to live without you
But that's a lot
No giving in or saying goodbye
Seems there's always something
But all that's ever left is nothing
(All that's ever left is nothing)

I thought I saw you reach out, thought I saw you try
Waiting here for something, nothing's all I find
Kneeling at your altar, standing on the shore
I'm waiting out, now listen, I'm outside your door

When push comes to shove
It's never enough
It always comes down to something

How could I live?
Why would I try?
I've been learning to live without you
But that's a lot
No giving in or saying goodbye
Seems there's always something
But all that's ever left is nothing

I won't give up!
I won't give up!
No!
'Cause you know I won't let you down

How could I live?
Why would I try?
I could learn to live without you
But I would die!
No giving in or saying goodbye
Seems there's always something
But all that's ever left is nothing

Why would I try?
I've been learning to live without you
But that's lot
No giving in or saying goodbye
Seems there's always something
But all that's ever left is nothing

I won't give up!
I won't give up!
No!
'Cause you know I won't let you down
You know I won't let you down
You know I won't let you down

Joey Keys

Very nice! Decent version!! Thank you for the effort!!

Diego Riquelme

Para mi la segunda música más impresionante de Bon Jovi de la década del 2000 después de It's My Life. Lástima que no lo haya agregado al álbum :'(

Olaf Bartelt

Great work, I have tried to clean it up myself a couple of times. Unfortunately, the hiss is still annoying in the chorus, but great job nonetheless!

Olaf Bartelt

metjovi yeah, it‘s most likely the crash cymbal.

metjovi

In my understanding, the hiss is the hi hat or a cymbal of the drums. The verses are very clear, which make me believe it's very probable you would hear a hiss even in the original recording Jon Bon Jovi has.

Danny Assink
