Your Loving Arms
Karen Overton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes the way that you act makes me wonder,
What I am to you,
Sometimes I can't stand the way that I'm acting,
To be part of the things you do,
Often I've asked you for too much of your time,
I've been stealing,
And when I dream of the fear that you're leaving,
I reach out,
Oh baby then you,
Mmmm, oh yeah...

So many times have I asked you to tell me,
That I'm your girl,
Time after time I have needed a reason,
Just to get inside your world,
So many times have I asked you to ask me,
How it feels to love,
And when its love seems the only conclusion,
That I'm guilty of,
Oh baby then you,
Mmmm, oh yeah...

Put your loving arms around me,
And you whisper to me when you,
Put your loving arms around me,
And inside your arms I'm burning,
Put your loving arms around me,
And you whisper to me when you,
Put your loving arms around me,
And inside your arms I'm burning,
I'm burning,
Inside your arms I'm burning,
Yeah burning...

Burning I'm burning,
Inside your arms I'm burning,
Yeah burning...

Oh yeah...

Sometimes the way that you act makes me wonder,
What I am to you,
Sometimes I can't stand the way that I'm acting,
To be part of the things you do,
Often I've asked you for too much of your time,
I've been stealing,
And when I dream of the fear that you're leaving,
I reach out...

So many times have I asked you to tell me,
That I'm your girl,
Time after time I have needed a reason,
Just to get inside your world,
So many times have I asked you to ask me,
How it feels to love,
And when its love seems the only conclusion,
That I'm guilty of,
Oh baby then you,
Put your loving arms around me,
And you whisper to me when you,




Put your loving arms around me,
Mmmm, oh yeah...

Sometimes the way that you act makes me wonder
What I am to you
Sometimes I can't stand the way that I'm acting
To be part of the things you do
Often I've asked you for too much of your time
Like I'm stealing
And when I dream of the fear that you're leaving
I reach out
Oh, baby then you
Hey guys this is ALPHA 9 and you're listening to my new track on the State of Trance
So many times have I asked you to tell me
That I'm your girl
Time after time I have needed a reason
Just to get inside your world
So many times have I asked you to ask me
How it feels to love
And when this love seems the only conclusion
That I'm guilty of
Oh, baby then you
Put your loving arms around me
And you whisper to me when you
Put your loving arms around me
And inside your arms I'm burning
Put your loving arms around me
Put your loving arms around me
And you whisper to me when you
Put your loving arms around me
And inside your arms I'm burning
I'm burning
Inside your arms I'm burning

Such a timeless banger. Absolutely loved the 2004-2006 era of trance.

@CryptoTradingUniversity

@Camilos1998

It's not trance :) But I also still like this track...
Check out ALPHA9 remix (extended one) - it makes make feel like an Alice in wonderland... or after getting LSD lol :D

@user-lv8lt8gu4g

​@@Camilos1998This is progressive trance, hiw would you call it?

@Camilos1998

@@user-lv8lt8gu4g I'd say it's rather a progressive house. It's to slow for progressive trance IMO

@user-lv8lt8gu4g

​@@Camilos1998 True, but i think its mainly because of the loud kicks and the structure of the drumbeat what makes it under genre trance. At least its concidered to come from the god trance era. 😂

@LT-tg2eg

wow... i never heard this track, but i LOVE it for first heard :) amazing progressive house tunes, unbelievable beautyful vocal, massive deep and dark tones, like a journey in heaven and hell in the same time :)

@EdFonsek
