[Verse 1: Dolly Parton]

Lying beside you

Here in the dark

Feeling your heartbeat with mine

Softly you whisper

You're so sincere

How could our love be so blind?

[Pre-Chorus: Dolly Parton]

We sailed on together

We drifted apart

And here you are by my side

[Chorus: Dolly Parton]

So now I come to you

With open arms

Nothing to hide

Believe what I say

So here I am

With open arms

Hoping you'll see

What your love means to me

Open arms

[Verse 2: Steve Perry, Dolly Parton, Both]

This empty house seems so cold

Living without you

Living alone

This empty house seems so cold

Wanting to hold you

Wanting you near

How much I wanted you home

[Pre-Chorus: Dolly Parton, Steve Perry]

But now that you've come back

Turned night into day

I, I, I need you (Need you) to stay

Please stay (Please stay)

[Chorus: Dolly Parton, Both]

And so I come to you

With open arms

With nothing to hide

Believe what I say

So here I am

With open arms

Hoping you'll see

What your love means to me

Open arms

[Outro: Both]

This empty house seems so cold
