In Your Arms

girl named sam

RPM 2013

Wearing your Favorite shirt
Missing you
Til it hurts
I’m seeing your name in
the Street signs
And the stoplights

Wishing for
Where you are
Reaching out
In the dark
I’m touching the pillow
But you’re not there
And it’s not fair

Three million footsteps
Lie between
All of my heart and the rest of me

So close your eyes
And I’ll close mine
We can dream til dawn
Miles away
We dream the same
I’ll be in your arms

Hanging on
Every noise
Swearing I
Hear your voice
I’m speaking your name like
A secret
Under my breath

Aching to
feel your touch
keeping my
eyes held shut
playback the mem’ries
try to hold on
it’s been so long

Ten thousand hours
Wearing thin
Marking the time til I’m whole again

So close your eyes
And I’ll close mine
We can dream til dawn
Miles away
We dream the same
I’ll be in your arms
