taking the world in my arms
requires
a lot of heart
to bear the pain
required
to bear the joy
to shed the tears
required
to share the laughter
and all the love
wrapped in the arms
of each person that
you come to call
because let's all admit
we're much too small
to fit the literal world in our arms
but not when it's beating
inside each heart of every love
one by one
we came to know
we came to love
