Alright, okay, oh yeah,
Keep your cool and don't hurt nobody,
"It all lies within you," so the dying say,
And you believe in the words of some buried prophet.

Alright, okay, oh yeah,
They nod their heads in unanimous approval,
And it makes you fell good 'til the night wind calls, and the darkness comes whispering down the halls,
And you're a scared little child who dreams he falls, come...

Fall in your father's arms,
Fall in your father's arms,
Fall in your father's arms,
Alright, oh yeah, a-ha.

You turn, you run, you hide,
A friend comes bid you travel,
And he smiles like an angel, but behind the eyes lurks the door of the death-house and the big surprise,
Alright, okay, oh yeah,
You assure them while composure is breaking,
And they watch as you run and hit the wall, slump to the ground, and begin to crawl to the edge of the cliff where you start your fall, come...

Fall in your father's arms,
Fall in your father's arms,
Fall in your father's arms,
Alright, oh yeah, a-ha.

Father's arms waiting to carry you, man, through all the changing, back home again.

Alright, okay, oh yeah,
They nod their heads in unanimous approval,
And it makes you fell good 'til the night wind calls, and the darkness comes whispering down the halls,
And you're a scared little child who dreams he falls, come...

Fall in your father's arms,
Fall in your father's arms,
Fall in your father's arms,
Fall in your father's arms,
Alright, oh yeah, a-ha,
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
