Song Lyrics

I've cried through many endless nights
Just holding my pillow tight
Then you came into my lonely days
With your tender and your sweet ways

Now I don't know where you come from, baby
Don't know where you've been, my baby
Heaven must have sent you
Into my arms

Now in the mornin' when I awake
There's a smile upon my face
You've touched my heart with gladness
Wiped away all my sadness

So long I've needed love right near me
A soft voice to cheer me
Heaven must have sent you, honey
Into my life, ooh

It's heaven in your arms
Boy, it's the sweetness of your charms
Makes me love you more each day
In your arms I wanna stay

Wanna thank you for the joy you brought me
Thank you for the things you taught me
Thank you for holding me close
When I needed you the most

Now I don't know much about you, baby
But I know I can't live without you
Heaven must have sent you
To love only me, ooh

It's heaven in your arms
Boy, it's the sweetness of your charms
Makes me love you more each day
In your arms I wanna stay

It's heaven in your arms
It's the sweetness of your charms
It makes me love you more each day
In your arms I wanna stay

It's heaven in your arms
Boy, it's the sweetness of your charms
Makes me love you more each day
In your arms I wanna stay
