In My Arms
ZANAVIA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You say that you will never leaving
Like everyone does
Right from the start
But over time you lose that feeling
From the beginning
When it was easy love
But after 18 months
It ain’t the same it was
And I tried holding on
But we got lost
When we met was like a dream
You were the one and I just couldn’t believe
But then we got to know each other
And it turned out you were too good for me
I tried to save us
Before you hit the breaks
You made the bed but
Now I lie in the grave
I play it over
The words I should’ve said
If only I had played my part
You’d still be in my arms
Lately I’ve been tryna pass time
But it feels like it’s a lifetime
Since I heard your voice
Friends call saying someone’s out there
But what they don’t realize
Is i’m not over you
When we met was like a dream
You were the one and I just couldn’t believe
Then we got to know each other
And it turned out you were too good for me
I tried to save us
Before you hit the breaks
You made the bed but
Now I lie in the grave
I play it over
The words I should’ve said
If only I had played my part
You’d still be in my arms
Tried to save
Only I




Shoulda said
Only I have played my part

You say that you will never leaving
You claim that you will never leave


Like everyone does
Just like everyone eventually does


Right from the start
From the very beginning


But over time you lose that feeling
But as time passes, you lose that sentiment


From the beginning
From the start


When it was easy love
When the love was effortless


But after 18 months
However, after 18 months


It ain’t the same it was
It is no longer the same as it used to be


And I tried holding on
And I attempted to hold on


But we got lost
But we became lost


When we met was like a dream
When we first met, it felt like a dream


You were the one and I just couldn’t believe
You were the perfect person and I couldn't believe my luck


But then we got to know each other
However, as we got to know each other


And it turned out you were too good for me
I realized that you were too amazing for me


I tried to save us
I made efforts to salvage our relationship


Before you hit the breaks
Before you abruptly ended it


You made the bed but
You created the situation, but


Now I lie in the grave
Now I am left heartbroken


I play it over
I replay it in my mind


The words I should’ve said
The words I should have uttered


If only I had played my part
If I had only fulfilled my role


You’d still be in my arms
You would still be with me


Lately I’ve been tryna pass time
Recently, I have been trying to pass the time


But it feels like it’s a lifetime
Yet it feels like an eternity


Since I heard your voice
Since I last heard your voice


Friends call saying someone’s out there
Friends call to inform me that there is someone new


But what they don’t realize
But what they fail to comprehend


Is i’m not over you
Is that I have not moved on from you


Tried to save
I attempted to rescue


Only I
If only I


Shoulda said
Had said


Only I have played my part
If only I had fulfilled my role
