Loving Arms
James Reid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The one who said that he'd rather roam
The one who said he'd rather be alone
If you could only see me now
If I could hold you now just for a moment
If I could really make you mine
Just for a while, turn back the hands of time
I've been too long in the wind
Too long in the rain
Taking any comfort that I can
Looking back and longing for
The freedom of my chains
Lying in your loving arms again
If you could hear me now
Singing somewhere through the lonely night
Dreaming of the arms that held me tight
If you could only hear me now
I've been too long in the wind
Too long in the rain
Taking any comfort that I can
Looking back and longing for
The freedom of my chains
Lying in your loving arms again
And I can almost feel your loving arms again
I can almost feel your loving arms again
I can almost feel your loving arms again
In James Reid's song "Loving Arms," the lyrics depict a sense of longing and regret for a past love. The singer reflects on how they used to be someone who preferred to wander and be alone but has now come to realize the value of having a loving partner by their side.
The opening lines, "If you could see me now / The one who said that he'd rather roam," suggest that the singer is reaching out to someone from their past, hoping that they could witness their transformation. They admit that they once proclaimed a preference for solitude, but now they have changed and desire the person's presence.
The lyrics continue to express the singer's yearning to hold their love interest and make them theirs, even if only for a brief moment. They express a desire to rewind time and have the opportunity to be with that person again, highlighting a longing for the happiness and security they once shared in each other's arms.
The verse "I've been too long in the wind / Too long in the rain / Taking any comfort that I can" reveals the singer's sense of loneliness and vulnerability. They have been searching for solace in various ways but ultimately find themselves yearning for the freedom they experienced in their past relationship.
The chorus emphasizes the desire to be comforted once more in the arms of their loved one. The repetition of the line, "Lying in your loving arms again," reinforces the longing for the emotional connection and intimacy they once shared.
The song concludes with the repeated phrase, "I can almost feel your loving arms again," encapsulating the singer's intense longing and their almost tangible anticipation of being back in the embrace of their former partner. It serves as a heartfelt reflection on past mistakes and the deep desire to rekindle a lost love.

Seeking solace in any way possible
Looking back and longing for
Reflecting on the past and yearning for
The freedom of my chains
The liberation from my constraints
Lying in your loving arms again
Reclining in your affectionate embrace once more
If you could hear me now
If you were able to listen to me presently
Singing somewhere through the lonely night
Uttering melodies somewhere in the desolate night
Dreaming of the arms that held me tight
Fantasizing about the arms that embraced me firmly
If you could only hear me now
If only you could exclusively listen to me at this moment
And I can almost feel your loving arms again
And I can nearly sense the tender embrace from you once more
I can almost feel your loving arms again
I can nearly perceive the affectionate embrace from you once more
I can almost feel your loving arms again
I can nearly experience the loving warmth of your embrace once more
