In These Arms - Bon Jovi

I watch you puttin' on your makeup Sometimes I can't believe my luck, hey Sun's settin' through the curtains And darling you look perfect, tonight I just wanna hold you Wish I could freeze frame the moment, hey Everything is golden As the lights go down, it's only you 'Cause this is like a movie The very last scene, baby just you and me I'm, askin' softly, is this love, oh? In these arms, I can dance But your heartbeats are cold, rhythm Unforgiven Got no freedom in these arms In these arms, I feel love I'm survivin', this ain't livin' It's a prison Got no freedom in these arms In these arms I watch you puttin' on your makeup Ain't no shy, this love, this is for grown ups, hey Lately, you don't really say much It got me thinkin' crazy, no I'm cool, you're fine We don't got no problems Sweep them under the rug until the next time, hey Everything is golden And darling, you look perfect tonight I can't never leave ya Even when you're actin' like a diva, I need ya But I've been thinkin' lately Is this love, oh? In these arms, I can dance But your heartbeats are cold, rhythm Unforgiven Got no freedom in these arms In these arms, I feel love I'm survivin', this ain't livin' It's a prison Got no freedom in these arms In these arms Oh, this prison hasn't got no bars But freedom never felt so far I ain't never gonna save my heart (I ain't never gonna save my heart) No, this prison hasn't got no bars But freedom never felt so far I ain't never gonna save my heart (I ain't never gonna save my heart) In these arms, I can dance But your heartbeats are cold, rhythm Unforgiven Got no freedom in these arms In these arms, I feel love I'm survivin', this ain't livin' It's a prison Got no freedom in these arms Got no freedom in these arms In these arms Hmm, in these arms

Would you like to hear I love you all the time If you couldn't turn around without us touching would you mind You know there's something missing round your waist Tell me would these arms be in your way Would you mind another heart beating for you Two ears that listen you can talk to Kisses filled with feeling on your face Now tell me would these arms be in your way [ Fiddle - piano ] Would you mind another heart beating for you... Darlin' tell me would these arms be in your way

Would you like to hear I love you all the time And if you couldn't turn around Without us touching would you mind You know there's something missing 'round your waist Tell me would these arms be in your way Would you mind another heart beating for you Two ears that listen you could talk to Kisses filled with feeling on your face Now tell me would these arms be in your way Would you mind another heart beating for you Two ears that listen you can talk to Kisses filled with feeling on your face Darlin tell me would these arms be in your way Now tell me would these arms be in your way

These arms That hang here by my side. These arms That ache to open wide. Useless arms With nothing left to do Since these arms Stopped holding you. These arms Are worthless now to me. They let you go So how good could they be Just foolish arms For which I have no need A pair of arms That grew weak and set love free. Reaching out to embrace affect now Marie Finding just the empty space Around what's left of me. Two arms that failed completely Arms both scarred so deeply Keep paying loves cost with each tragic sway Trying meekly to assess my struggle with the truth Unable to resist what tears still make us new Two arms that failed completely Arms both scarred so deeply Keeps paying loves cost with each tragic sway These arms That hang here by my side. These arms That ache to open wide. Useless arms With nothing left to do Since these arms Stopped holding you. Since these arms Stopped holding you.

I'm lying here beside you in someone else's bed Knowing what we're doing's wrong But better left unsaid Your breathing sounds like screaming It's all that I can stand His ring is on your finger But my heart is in your hands Damned if you love me Damned if you don't It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go Damned if you don't need me Damned if you do Oh God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes Damned, damned A door slams like a shotgun, you jump up to your feet But it's just the wind that's blowing through those secrets that we keep Made me want to want you, God knows I need to need you By the time the love is over, I'll be sleeping on the streets Damned if you love me Damned if you don't It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go Damned if you don't need me Damned if you do Oh God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes Damned, damned Why don't you talk to me? ('Cause I'm too blind to see) Why don't you look at me? ('Cause I'm afraid to breathe) What do you want from me? (All that I can stand) The lies are on my tongue and I can't turn back I know My soul is damned Don't worry I ain't gonna call you or hear you say my name And if you see me on the streets, don't wave, just walk away Our lives are getting twisted, let's keep our stories straight The more that I resist it, my temptation turns to fade Damned if you love me Damned if you don't It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go Damned if you don't need me Damned if you do God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes

My mama told me When I was younger You better speak up Don't be a number My daddy told me When it was thunder Go be the lighting Don't run for cover Who's gonna help the helpless? Sometimes we're all alone These days, we're all just looking For a place that we call home Now we can't climb over And you can't go round Build them up We'll tear them down Brick by brick Gonna watch them fall Build more bridges And tear down walls These walls Are the mountains that we climb These walls Are the great divide Brick by brick Gonna watch them fall Build more bridges Tear down walls The space between us Is getting wider We need this bar to Light the fire Show me the promise Give me some dealing There's too much hurting We need some healing Who's gonna help the helpless? Sometimes we're all alone These days, we're one step closer To that place that we call home Now we can't climb over And you can't go round Build them up We'll tear them down Brick by brick Gonna watch them fall Build more bridges And tear down walls These walls Are the mountains that we climb These walls Are the great divide Brick by brick Gonna watch them fall Build more bridges Tear down these walls I remember when the world was smaller And we both felt ten feet taller Now we can't climb over And you can't go round Build them up We'll tear them down Brick by brick Gonna watch them fall Build more bridges And tear down walls These walls Are the mountains that we climb These walls Are the great divide Brick by brick Gonna watch them fall Build more bridges Tear down these walls These walls These walls These walls Tear down these walls These walls These walls These walls Tear down walls

I was born to be of service Camp Lejeune just felt like home I had honor, I found purpose Sir, yes, sir That's what I know They sent us to a place I never heard of weeks before When you're nineteen, it ain't hard to sleep In the desert on God's floor Close your eyes, stop counting sheep You hear them bootcamp anymore We were taught to shoot our rifles Then in one, then side by side Thought we'd be made as liberators In a thousand year old fight I got this painful ringing in my ear From an IED last night But no lead light humvee war machine, could save my sargeants life Three more soldiers, six civilians Need these words to come out right God of mercy, God of light Seek your children from this life Here these words, this humble plea For I have seen the suffering And with this prayer I'm hoping That we, can be unbroken It's 18 months now, I've been stateside With this medal on my chest But there are things I can't remember And there are things I won't forget I lie awake at night with dreams of devils shouldn't see I wanna scream, but I can't breathe And Christ, I am sweating through these sheets Where's my brothers? Where's my country? Where's my how things used to be? God of mercy, God of light Seek your children from this life Here these words, this humble plea For I have seen the suffering And with this prayer I'm hoping That we, can be unbroken My service dogs done more for me Then the medication would There ain't no angel that is coming to save me But even if they could Today, 22, would die from suicide Just like yesterday, they're gone I live my life for each tomorrow So their memories will live on Once we were boys, and we were strangers Now we're brothers and we're men Someday you'll ask me, was it worth it to be of service in the end? Well, the blessing, and the curses, yeah, I'd do it all again Whoa-oh Whoa-oh Whoa-oh Whoa-oh Whoa-oh Whoa-oh (Whoa)
