Don't know why, but the one I love left me,
Left me lonely, and cold and so weak,
And I need someone's arms to hold me,
'Til I'm strong enough to get back on my feet.
Can I sleep in your arms tonight, Mister,
It's so cold lying here all alone,
And I have no hold to hold on you,
I assure you I'll do you no wrong
I haven't smiled since he left me,
'Cause a smile somehow seems out of place,
And I just need two lips to kiss me,
Then I can smile again and I can show my face.
[2x:]
Can I sleep in your arms tonight, Mister,
It's so cold lying here all alone,
And I have no hold to hold on you,
I assure you I'll do you no wrong
