G          D
Just open your heart to me

And you'll get whatever you'll ever need
G                     D
You think that's too high for you
G                 D
Oh baby, I would die for you
G                     D
When there's nothin' left
                A
You know where I'll be

So baby just call on me
When you want all of me
And I'll be your lover I'll be your friend
And there's nothing I won't do
'Cause baby I just live for you
With nothing to hide, no need to pretend - oh-oh

Chorus:
Lay back in the arms of someone
You give in to the charms of someone
Lay back in the arms of someone you love - darling
Lay back in the arms of someone
When you feel you're a part of someone
Lay back in the arms of someone you love

Oh I know you think that's too high for you
Oh baby, I would die for you
When there's nothing left
I'll be with you

Chorus:
Lay back in the arms of someone
You give in to the charms of someone
Lay back in the arms of someone you love - baby
Lay back in the arms of someone
When you feel you're a part of someone
Lay back in the arms of someone you love - oh yeah.
