These Arms Of Mine


These arms of mine
They are lonely
Lonely and feeling blue

These arms of mine
They are yearning
Yearning from wanting you
And if you would let them hold you
How grateful I would be

These arms of mine
They are burning
Burning from wanting you
These arms of mine
They are wanting
Wanting to hold you

And if you let them hold you
How grateful I will be

C'mon, c'mon baby
Just be my woman
Just be my lover
I need someone
Somebody to hold me tight
And I need your warm, warm loving arms
Around me tonight

Just let me hold you
Just let me hold you
Let my arms hold you
Just let them hold you
Please let them hold you
Just let me hold you
C'mon let me hold you
Just let me hold you
Please let me hold you
Just let me hold you

Otis Redding
