Safe In These Arms

Here in these arms

Our history began

Before there was you

There was thirst in my heart

Look at my lips, you will see

I have drunk from the river

That flows to the sea

Of our love

Safe in these arms,

That's where I want to be

Safe from the harm, in these arms

That's where I want to be

If I may die

Let it be here with you

For here with you

I shall surely be safe

Safe from the hate, from the lies

From the vultures of Christ

I need no Gods

I have no fears, I have you

Safe in these arms,

That's where I want to be

Safe from the harm, in these arms

That's where I want to be

Never let me, never let me

Say you'll never let me go

Say you'll...

Take me in your arms

& say you'll never let me go

Take me in your arms & hold me

Say you'll never let me go
