Shadows fall across the land
Prophets say the end's at hand
More bad news everywhere I turn
But in your arms it's a perfect world
Rebels rage and lions roar
Everyday it's a brand new war
Lines are crossed and bombs are hurled
But in your arms it's a perfect world
When your love wraps around me tight
I believe in paradise
There's one place where my heart's secure
Here in your arms it's a perfect world
Homeless hearts on every street
Desperate eyes of poverty
No refuge left on God's green earth
But in your arms it's a perfect world
