[Verse 1]
I remember days and nights were never cold
Had you in my life, I had you there to hold
And I remember love warm as a summer day
But I lost you
And I lost my way
Now I'm in the rain
Begging you please, please

[Chorus]
Baby, won't you show me the way back to your heart
Let me see a sign to know if I'm close or far
Lead me back to the road
That leads back to your arms
Back to your arms, ooh

[Verse 2]
Every night another lonely street
I walk down alone
Searching for a light
Your light to lead me home
Leave a candle in the window
And let it shine for me
Take my hand and take these tears away
I can't take the pain
I'm on my knees, begging you please

[Chorus]
Baby, won't you show me the way back to your heart
Let me see a sign to know if I'm close or far
Lead me back to the road
That leads back to your arms
Back to your arms

[Bridge]
Take my hand (Take my hand)
Take me in your arms
I'm out in the dark
Down on my knees (Down on my knees)
Begging you please (Begging you please)

[Chorus]
Show me the way back to your heart
Let me see a sign to know if I'm close or far
Lead me back to the road
That leads back to your arms
Back to your arms
Back to your arms
