Send me back all the thing she ever wrote Tell me secrets of her days when she was young Show me nights when she laughed So innocent I`ll be happy Waiting till they come Love the people that she smiled upon Walk with me in streets Where she once stood Say if it could be that we once passed like strangers Long before the love we ever new `Cause I've been longing For a new world waiting I've been hoping To be sent I've been picking up All the love we squandered Until you Hold me in your swaying arms again One day I can see us walking Arm and arm in sheltered Kelvin way Talking and tripping and teasing And heading for the best part of the day When your head Falls softly on my pillow No fear will make you cry or turn you grey And we will wake So early in the morning Knowing you`ll never Never Never go away `Cause I've been longing For a new world waiting I've been hoping To be sent I've been picking up All the love we squandered Until you Hold me in your swaying arms again I've been longing For a new world waiting I've been hoping To be sent I've been picking up All the love we squandered Until you Hold me in your swaying arms again Until you Rest me in your swaying arms again In your arms In your swaying arms Your swaying arms Hold me Bless me now Hold me Hold me now Hold me hold me hole me In your arms Your swaying arms Your swaying arms Hold me
