Hello hive friends!
Have a wonderful day everyone. Here we are on the 113th week of hive openmic with the theme “Infantil”.
For this week, I will be sharing a song cover Open Arms by the American Rock Band Journey. The song was released in 1981 as a single from the Journey’s heavy metal soundtrack album. If you’re born in 80s I don’t think so if you haven’t heard how famous this song was even until today.
Open Arms has been covered by various musicians like Mariah Carey, Barry Manilow, Celine Dion as well as by the Boyz II Men. Also, being performed as the piece by numbers of contestants on musical shows in the US like The Voice, American Idol, Uk’s The X Factor and other countries. Of course in the Philippines as well, as we all know the Journey’s latest front man is a Filipino, Arnel Penida since 2007.
Anyways, I love the song but seems the song doesn’t really love me. I hope you still like it.
OPEN ARMS
By: Journey
Lying beside you here in the dark
Feeling your heart beat with mine
Softly you whisper, you're so sincere
How could our love be so blind?
We sailed on together
We drifted apart
And here you are by my side
So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me, open arms
Living without you, living alone
This empty house seems so cold
Wanting to hold you, wanting you near
How much I wanted you home
But now that you've come back
Turned night into day
I need you to stay
So now I come to you with open arms
Nothing to hide, believe what I say
So here I am with open arms
Hoping you'll see what your love means to me, open arms
