The Arms of Night - Jackson Browne

The things people do looking for understanding

Defy understanding

If only they knew where the love they seek

Is truly to be found

Into the arms of night with their dreams held tight

In their endless flight through the failing light

The places you go thinking that love may find you

When love is behind you

It’s all you can do to let the angels

Find their own way home

Into the arms of night with your endless fright

With your face alight and your prey in sight

Into the breach in search of the new

Though after so many times

You will have betrayed that too

Into the arms of night with your endless fright

With your eyes all bright and your prey in sight

Into the arms of somebody new

Until that’s no longer so

And you are no longer true
