Let the world be still tonight Let the fire be the only light Draw the curtain pull down the shade In easy arms we'll lay So come on lady now close your eyes Let the madness pass on by Loosen up your golden hair Stroke away my every care There's no comfort in strangers That I can't find right here Laying down in the arms of sister Mary Will her loving ever last? Laying down in the arms of mother Mary Let the world drift past For a moment a perfect love Pure and silent like a star above Never mind about tomorrow's fears Peace of mind is here Outside's a world of strangeness So I will stay right here Laying down in the arms of sister Mary Will her loving ever last? Laying down in the arms of mother Mary Let the world drift past Let her loving come to you Let her loving come to you Her love will come to you And bring you home Outside's a world of strangers So I will stay right here Laying down in the arms of sister Mary Will her loving ever last? Laying down in the arms of mother Mary Nothing more to ask Laying down in the arms of sister Mary Will her loving ever last? Laying down in the arms of mother Mary Let the world drift past
