The Arms of Love
by Andrew Osenga

Album: Choosing Sides

I remember you could only talk about the weather
the clearest, bluest sky could never
meet your expectations

and I watched you
trip and stumble into those "I love you"s
they'd bow their heads, you'd hit them with an excuse
that let you slip away
but something breaks
it always does
and you find yourself reaching

and you run into the arms of love
you taste the air above the clouds and the rain
you're free of the secrets that you keep
the nights that never sleep
now you're held in the arms of love

hope is a fragile field
always under siege from the bitter weeds
you fight for the moments when you know it's real
and then you don't let go

cause love is true, we must believe
and I saw you walk across its seas
what is more precious
than the heart after the healing?

cause something aches
it always does
and you find you self reaching

we watched you fall
it broke my heart
is there no justice in this world at all?
and here you are
standing clean and tall
this changes everything
this changes everythng
