Open Arms

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Dolly Parton] Lying beside you Here in the dark Feeling your heartbeat with mine Softly you whisper You're so sincere How could our love be so blind? [Pre-Chorus: Dolly Parton] We sailed on together We drifted apart And here you are by my side [Chorus: Dolly Parton] So now I come to you With open arms Nothing to hide Believe what I say So here I am With open arms Hoping you'll see What your love means to me Open arms [Verse 2: Steve Perry, Dolly Parton, Both] This empty house seems so cold Living without you Living alone This empty house seems so cold Wanting to hold you Wanting you near How much I wanted you home [Pre-Chorus: Dolly Parton, Steve Perry] But now that you've come back Turned night into day I, I, I need you (Need you) to stay Please stay (Please stay) [Chorus: Dolly Parton, Both] And so I come to you With open arms With nothing to hide Believe what I say So here I am With open arms Hoping you'll see What your love means to me Open arms [Outro: Both] This empty house seems so cold
