I Got Lost In His Arms
Embraced by Love: Getting Lost in Unforeseen Arms
Lyrics
Don't ask me just how it happened
Expressing uncertainty about the circumstances leading to a certain experience.
I wish I knew
Desiring knowledge or understanding of how the situation unfolded.
I can't believe that it's happened
Expressing disbelief in the reality of the situation.
And still it's true
Acknowledging the truth of the situation despite initial disbelief.
I got lost in his arms and I had to stay
Describing getting emotionally entangled in someone's embrace and choosing to remain there.
It was dark in his arms and I lost my way
Highlighting the emotional intensity and disorientation experienced in the person's arms.
From the dark came a voice
Describing a mysterious voice emerging from the darkness of the embrace.
And it seemed to say
Reporting what the voice seemed to communicate.
There you go
Repetition of the voice's message, emphasizing the direction or guidance given.
There you go
-How I felt as I fell I just can't recall
Expressing difficulty recalling the emotional state during the experience of falling.
But his arms held me fast and it broke the fall
Highlighting the security and support provided by the person's arms, preventing a harsh impact.
And I said to my heart
Addressing the speaker's heart, acknowledging its excited and erratic behavior.
As it foolishly kept jumping all around
Describing the heart's behavior as foolish and uncontrolled.
I got lost but look what I found
Expressing a realization of being lost but finding something valuable in the experience.
(There you go, there you go)
Repeating the voice's guidance, reinforcing the direction taken.
How I felt as I fell I just can't recall
Reiterating the difficulty in recalling the emotional state during the fall.
But his arms held me fast and it broke the fall
Reaffirming the security provided by the person's arms during the fall.
And I said to my heart
Addressing the speaker's heart again, emphasizing its irrational and energetic behavior.
As it foolishly kept jumping all around
Reiterating the acknowledgment of being lost but finding something meaningful.
I got lost but look what I found
Concluding with the speaker recognizing the value discovered in the midst of being lost.
