Lyrics

(Duet with sheena easton)

Orion's arms are wide enough
2 hold us both together
Although we're worlds apart
I'd cross the stars 4 u

In the heart of a sleepless moon
I'll be with u 4 ever
This is my destiny
'Till my life is through

The arms of orion that's where I wanna be
Since u've been gone
I've been searching 4 a lover
In the sea of tranquility
I'm drowning without u here, my dear

When I am lost and feeling alone
I just look to heaven
I find my comfort there
God only knows where u are 2 night

God only knows where u are 2 night
Maybe time will tell me
Till then I'll close my eyes and say a prayer 4 u
(I'll say a prayer 4 u 2)

The arms of orion that's where I wanna be
Since u've been gone
I've been searching 4 a lover
In the sea of tranquility
I'm drowning without u here, my dear

Orion's heart is bright enough
2 shine on both of us
The constellations never fail
2 light the way 4 love

Orion's arms are wide enough
2 hold us both together
Although we're worlds apart
(I'd cross the stars 4 u)
I'd cross the stars 4 u

The arms of orion that's where I wanna be
Since u've been gone
I've been searching 4 a lover
In the sea of tranquility
I'm drowning without u here, my dear

The arms of orion that's where I wanna be
Since u've been gone I've been drowning (lost)
In the sea of tranquility" (lonely)
Drowning without u here my dear" (baby)

The arms of orion
That's where I wanna be
That's where I wanna be (the arms of orion)
That's where I wanna be (the arms of orion)
Since u've been gone, babe
Since u've been gone
I've been drowning", (drowning), drowning
Drowning without your love
