The days I have been without you 
                               C 
It feels so alone without you, baby

Those rainy days 
  
  
  
The times when I think about you

I don't want to live without you, you're gone,

And I'm on my own 
  
  
C                G 
No light shining on me now

Hear me crying

Here in my arms, in my arms again 
  
  
  
I long for the day you'll call me 
                                   C 
I hope that I'll soon be with you, baby 
          D 
just as before 
  
  
  
Maybe we can really make it 
                             C     G 
Baby we can climb a mountain high 
                 D    Eb 
To reach for the sky

And I am crying out for you

In my arms, here in my arms, in my arms,

In my arms, in my arms, in my arms
