Somebody Else's Arms
Maze Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I made a mistake I'll never be the same
I lost I lost the love of my life
Might never love again
Of the things that hurt me so
There is one thing I still find
That's the thought of what your doing with him
It drives me out of my mind
I can't stand it seeing you
In somebody elses arms
I can't stand it seeing you
In somebody elses arms
I've learned to except it
Must go on living my life
I've got most of it under control
But this cuts just like a knife
Yet I realize your mine on more
And there's nothing I can do
I can't help the way it makes me feel
Seeing him with you
Come on back baby
Don't you want to mend my heart
Come on back baby I miss you so
I want you to know I love you forever
Of the things that hurt me so
There is one thing I still find
That's the thought of what your doing with him
It drives me out of my mind
I can't stand it seeing you
In somebody elses arms




I can't stand it seeing you
In somebody elses arms
