In Your Arms
K.Ellis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Problems find you, at least they try to
Sometimes too easy, just to teach me
Some things that I dare, others they don't care
But still I know there's

Always somebody there to tell me
'Bout deep muddy water, why do they bother
Won't be roped and tied down
No I can be found, comin' back 'round
Because I know

All your lovin', all your charms
All the things that keep me calm
Time apart can do no harm
Walkin' in and out of your arms

Walkin' I'm walkin', in and out of your arms
Walkin' I'm walkin', in and out of your arms
Walkin' I'm walkin', in and out of your arms
Walkin' I'm walkin', in and out of your arms
I'm walkin, walkin' I'm walkin', walkin

Always somebody there to tell me
'Bout deep muddy water, why do they bother?
Won't be roped and tied down
No I can be found, comin' back 'round
Because I know

All your lovin', all your charms
All the things that keep me calm
Time apart can do no harm
Walkin' in and out of your arms

Walkin' I'm walkin', in and out of your arms
Walkin' I'm walkin', in and out of your arms
Walkin' I'm walkin', in and out of your arms
Walkin' I'm walkin', oh I'm walkin

I'm walkin', I'm walkin', in and out of your arms




Walkin' I'm walkin', in and out of your arms
Walkin'

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Problems find you, at least they try to” suggest that life can be tough and unpredictable, and difficulties may arise even when one tries to evade them. However, the line “Sometimes too easy, just to teach me” highlights the importance of facing and overcoming these obstacles in order to learn and grow from them. The next verse delves deeper into the idea of life's challenges, with the lyric “Some things that I dare, others they don't care.” This line implies that there are some aspects of life where one must take risks to progress, while others require more caution.


Despite these challenges, the singer knows that there is always somebody who will give advice or support. However, the lyrics “deep muddy water, why do they bother?” suggests that not all advice is useful, and some may even be harmful. The final verse seems to offer a solution to life’s challenges - the love and comfort of another person. The lyrics “All your lovin', all your charms, all the things that keep me calm” suggest that the singer has found solace in the arms of someone special. The final line “Walkin' in and out of your arms” suggests a sense of comfort in the cyclical nature of the relationship.


Overall, the song seems to be about the ups and downs of life, and how love and relationships can provide a sense of stability in a world full of uncertainty and challenges.
