In Your Arms

Lyrics

[Intro] Your hand finds mine beside the old stone gate Drums from the courtyard turn the dust to gold [Verse 1] You wear red beads from the market by the sea A little silver moon rests against your skin The lantern seller laughs beneath the mango tree And every step you take pulls my heart in [Pre-Chorus] Come closer, let the whole world wait Your breath is warm, your eyes are brave [Chorus] You are magnificent, my love Wide as the river after rain When you move, the earth remembers When you smile, I rise again You are magnificent, my love No crown could carry what you bring In your arms, I find a kingdom In your name, I learn to sing [Verse 2] From Luanda shores to Dakar’s open square The same bright moon is traveling with us Your cheek against my shoulder, salt inside your hair We turn until the night becomes generous [Pre-Chorus] Come closer, let the whole world wait Your breath is warm, your eyes are brave [Chorus] You are magnificent, my love Wide as the river after rain When you move, the earth remembers When you smile, I rise again You are magnificent, my love No crown could carry what you bring In your arms, I find a kingdom In your name, I learn to sing [Bridge] Let the drums call every distant doorway Let the hills repeat the promise that we made I will meet you where the morning opens I will choose you in the light and shade [Final Chorus] You are magnificent, my love Brighter than the harvest moon Every road becomes a blessing Every room becomes our room You are magnificent, my love Let the whole wide continent sing In your arms, I find a kingdom In your name, I learn to sing [Outro] Stay with me until the first birds rise Your hand in mine, two hearts beneath one sky
