Lyrics
Don’t ask me just how it happened
I wish I knew
I can’t believe that it’s happened
And still it’s true
Chorus
I got lost in his arms and I had to stay
It was dark in his arms and I lost my way
From the dark came a voice
And it seemed to say
“There you go, there you go”
How I felt as I fell I just can’t recall
But his arms held me fast and it broke the fall
And I said to my heart
As it foolishly kept jumping all around
I got lost but look what I found
