A Woman In His Arms Lyrics - Now - Linda Eder

A fallen tear, a blush of fear 

A wave of fresh desire 

Bewildered by this man that I adore 

Is love this strange? Do people change? 

No, nothing moves that fast 

Tomorrow I'll be who I was before 

But I'm a woman in his arms 

I am nothing but a woman when I'm in his arms 

With his hands he's drawing out the doubts I hide 

He touches me and finds a beauty lost inside 

I've never felt my skin so bare 

Never known a stroke so silken in my hair 

Now it's raining and he murmurs through my skin 

Words I cannot hear and still I drink them in 

God, I drink him in 

And there he is, this man lies sleeping 

All his power loosened and he's breathing hushed and mild 

He doesn't know I lie here 

Wishing I had never met him, he keeps sleeping like a child 

And I could still be strong enough to turn away 

But if I stay what will I be?
