With Open Arms Lyrics By Jane Morgan

    aplink a chunk ooh ooh
    ooh aplink a chunk ooh ooh
    ooh aplink a chunk

    i wait with open arms
    aplink a chunk
    down by the river
    where the boats comes in

    aplink a chunk
    and when the boats come in
    i run to him with open arms
    aplink a chunk

    although he’s on the shore
    aplink a chunk
    his heart is still
    a hundred miles at sea

    aplink a chunk
    but then he kisses me
    and i can tell
    he’s mine once more

    all night i hold him tight
    he’s mine until the dawn
    then when the fishing boats
    go out again he’s gone
    gone away and

    i pray all through the day
    aplink a chunk
    that he’ll return
    and make my life begin

    aplink a chunk
    and when his boat comes in
    i run to him with open arms
    down by the river
    where the boats come in

    all night i hold him tight
    he’s mine until the dawn
    then when the fishing boats
    go out again he’s gone
    gone away and

    i pray all through the day
    aplink a chunk
    that he’ll return
    and make my life begin

    aplink a chunk
    and when his boat comes in
    i run to him with

    with open arms
    open
    with open arms
    arms

    down by the river
    where the boats come in
    aplink a chunk
