In My Arms

You gave me all your love in one day
You gave it all and almost faded away
I'm going to take this sad and unread issue
In my arms tonight

Looking at hospitals victorian
Feeling as helpless as the elephant man
Wish you were here
To chain you up without shame
In my arms tonight

So if you should feel a bit out of place
This vision not unlike a shooting star
I have embraced

Cause you gave me all your love in one day
You gave it all and almost faded away
I'm going to take this sad and unread issue
In my arms tonight

Looking at hospitals victorian
Feeling as helpless as the elephant man
Wish you were here
To chain you up and without shame
In my arms tonight

I ain't a soft and saccharine wannabe
Still i pray to god this song will end happily
So I offer you a place to rest and forget yourself
In my arms tonight
A place to rest and forget yourself
In my arms
Tonight

from the Rufus Wainwright West 54th sessions, 1998

  • Aaaah this was absolutely divine. Hypnotizing.

  • Never heard the song before but the singer attracted me to it cuz yo he is Rufus and when I heard the first word I fell in love! So melodic and seducing that I barely knew the words, I just listened to his husky, deep voice and I felt like I was trapped in one timeless movie and wow! Yeah, there you go Rufus! Bringing me back to a time I didn't exist in!

  • damn.. so good. Haven't heard this song in a few years.  But for some reason I feel close to it right now.

  • while i like the lyrics (well written!), Rufus slurs so much I can't make the words out. I have to read while listening :(
