Open Arms (Don't Explain) Songtext

von Patty Larkin

You're born into a strangers' world
You learn the language word by word
Take a step and then you turn
And you don't explain

Mama hold her arms out too long
Daddy makes his arms look strong
Take another step and then you're gone
And you don't explain

And when the rain comes down
You feel like a waste of time
Fall into those Open Arms
Don't explain

The river runs along the road
That's the story you get told
They tore the mountain down for gold
And they don't explain

Teacher learned the truth from books
Preacher did all that he could
Reaching for you but it does no good
And you don't explain

And when the rain comes down
You feel like a waste of time
Fall into those Open Arms
Don't explain

It's all a patchwork from above
It's all that you've been dreaming of
And when you land you kiss your love
And you don't explain

Lover holds you when others go
Covers you with another soul
Stands behind you when you stand alone
And you don't explain

And when the rain comes down
You feel like a waste of time
Fall into those Open Arms
Don't explain

And when the rain comes down
You feel like a waste of time
Fall into those Open Arms
Don't explain

You're born into a strangers' world
You learn the language word by word
Take a step and then you turn
And you don't explain
