Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bet you think that I don't love you, baby
Bet you think that I...
I don't care
But I wanna tell you
Well, you got something
And I'm loving you with all my heart
I don't ever wanna part
'Cause I don't wanna be with nobody but you
No no
I don't wanna be with no-one but you
I wanna to be wrapped up
In the arms of my loving man
(Come on and rock me)
Rock me in your arms like I know you can
Don't you know that you can call on me, baby
(You can call on me)
All you gotta do is say you will
(All you gotta do)
'Cause I'm ready just to love you
And put an end to all your doubts
I know we can work it out
'Cause I don't wanna be with nobody but you
No no
I don't wanna be with no-one but you
I wanna to be wrapped up
In the arms of my loving man
(Come on and rock me)
Rock me in your arms like I know you can
Man, I love you
So, put an end to your fantasy,
Or you just might...
You just might blow it all
Get yourself together
And baby, when you do
You're gonna see that I'll be true to you
'Cause I don't wanna be with nobody but you
No no
I don't wanna be with no-one but you
I wanna to be wrapped up
In the arms of my loving man
(Come on and rock me)
Rock me in your arms like I know you can
(You can call on me)
(Yes, yes)
(You can call on me)
(Yes, yes)
(Come on and rock me)
Don't you know that you can call on me, baby
(You can call on me)
All you gotta do is say you will
(Say)
'Cause I'm ready just to love you
(I'm ready)
And put an end to all your doubts
I know we can work it out
'Cause I don't wanna be with nobody but you
No no
I don't wanna be with no-one, baby
I wanna to be wrapped up
In the arms of my loving man
(Come on and rock me)
Rock me in your arms like I know you can
(Come on and rock me)
Rock me in your arms like I know you can




(Come on and rock me)
Rock me in your arms like I know you can

Out by the desolate shore
The waves come in with a roar
The children are playing
Throwing stones in the water
Dogs are chasing the seagulls
Are flickering, bickering, bickering

Horses are out in the pasture
Seeing who's running faster
And inside the house
A young girl is sewing
What a peaceful scene
Like a faded dream
It all looks like a sepia photograph

I don't mind if you live in my mind
I'm happy to keep you there
And that's fine, oh you
You're all that I like
And my imagination's clear, ooh oh

The sun shines bright on the water
I walk with my daughter
And the whole world is
Shimmering, shimmering, shimmering
I hear a church bell ring
With a kind of lilt and swing
Just then the noise of the planes
Is shattering, shattering, shattering

Out by the desolate shore
By the marshy moor
The children were playing
Horses are out in the pasture
Saddled up for the master
Meanwhile the clouds are
Gathering gathering gathering

I don't mind if you live in my mind
I'm happy to keep you there
And that's fine, oh you
You're all that I like
And my imagination's clear, ooh oh

And even though you're just a figment
Of my thoughts I'm still loving every segment
And my imagination got me desperate
And you've already took away my next breath
Which means I'm doomed from the outset
'Cause I'm in love without an outlet

Which means I can't make no progress
Means my ambitions are hopeless
I want to wrap around you like a necklace
But I can't, so you got me moving reckless
To you I'd rather give more and take less
'Cause you make me want to conquer every conquest

I'm trying to tell you that I love you from the longest
I'm trying to tell you that my loving is the strongest
I'm trying to tell you that sweet dreams are made of me
And who are you to disagree?

I don't mind if you live in my mind
I'm happy to keep you there
And that's fine, oh you
You're all that I like
And my imagination's clear

I don't mind if you live in my mind
I'm happy to keep you there
And that's fine, oh you
Happy to, happy to keep you there

WOW!!! God, I love Mick Jagger and Damian Marley so much. This song is so damn awesome. Gave me a lot of respect for the other members as well- Joss Stone, A. R. Rahman, and Dave Stewart. This was AMAZING.
