Arms Around My Life Lyrics

ALL THOSE BROKEN PROMISES
ALL THOSE SHATTERED DREAMS
ALL THIS ACHE AND LONELINESS
THAT HIDES INSIDE OF ME
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG
I'VE FORGOTTEN WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO FEEL SOMEBODY'S ARMS AROUND MY LIFE
ALL THIS LONGING
ALL THIS YEARNING
ALL THIS HOPELESS
TWISTING AND TURNING
I'VE BEEN LONELY FOR SO LONG
I'VE FORGOTTEN WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO FEEL SOMEBODY'S ARMS AROUND MY LIFE
I KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE, SOMEWHERE
UNDERNEATH THE STARS
AND WHEN YOU FINALLY FIND ME
I'LL KNOW WHO YOU ARE
STAR LIGHT, STAR BRIGHT
HAVEN'T I THE RIGHT
TO FEEL SOMEBODY'S ARMS AROUND MY LIFE
ALL THE BROKEN PROMISES
ALL THE SHATTERED DREAMS
ALL THIS ACHING LONELINESS
WILL FINALLY BE SET FREE
I HAVE WAITED FOR SO LONG
TO REMEMBER WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO FEEL SOMEBODY'S ARMS AROUND MY LIFE
