Cheryl Wheeler - Arrow lyrics

I wish I could fall in love

Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does

Still I'd fool myself and gladly, just to feel I was

In love, in love

I wish I could feel my heartbeat rise

And gaze into some gentle, warm excited eyes

And give myself as truly as an arrow flies

In windless skies.

Oh I remember you in the tv light

Holding you close to me where we lay

And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights

Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me.

Only last night in the winter dark

I dreamed of how you loved, in all your innocence

And I've never known a softer warmer feeling since, or a truer heart

Maybe these dreams are leading me

Maybe love is not as gentle as my memory

Maybe time and wishful half-remembered fantasy are the greatest part.

Oh I remember you in the tv light

Holding you close to me where we lay

And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights

Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me.

Wish I could feel my heartbeat rise

And gaze into some gentle, warm excited eyes

And give myself as truly as an arrow flies

In windless skies

I wish I could fall in love

Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does

Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was, in love...
