Lyrics

I will fly swift and true straight to you, like an arrow

I am determined to swiftly and accurately reach you, much like an arrow.

Just to be where you lie

I want to be close to you, where you are lying.

Meet my quest, do my shambling best to be near you

I will undertake my quest and make my best effort, even if it seems clumsy, to be near you where you lie.

Where you lie

Reiteration of the desire to be close to the person.

I've found peace in your arms

I have found peace and comfort in your embrace.
