Back in Your Arms (2007 Remaster)

by Wilson Pickett

Lyrics
When I first met you baby
Heaven knows I was out in the cold
With my suitcase in my hand
And no place to go
But here's what you done
You took me in
Even when you wasn't able
You pawned your best clothes
So we could have food on the table

I wish I was back
(Wish I was back in your arms)
In your arms again baby
(Wish I was back in your arms)
For I would never find another woman like you nowhere

But look here
You know every time I see you with him
It just tear me up inside
Knowing that he got everything
Everything I once had
It just make me wanna break down and cry
But I should have thought about it
Before I left
I can't blame you baby
I brought it all on myself

And that's why I wish I was back
Lord have mercy
(Wish I was back in your arms)
In your arms one more time
(Wish I was back in your arms)

Oh what would I do
What would I do
To see your smiling face one more time
Oh if I was back yeah
(Wish I was back in your arms)
In your arms one more time baby
(Wish I was back in your arms)
Heaven knows
Heaven knows
I won't make that same mistake no more

I wish I was back
(Wish I was back in your arms)
In your arms again baby
(Wish I was back in your arms)
