With Open Arms

I wait with open arms
Down by the river where the boats come in
And when the boats come in
I run to him with open arms
Although he's on the shore
His heart is still a hundred miles at sea
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
That he'll return and make my life begin
And when his boat comes in
I run to him with open arms

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
That he'll return and make my life begin

And when his boat comes in
I run to him with open arms
