About Kris Kristofferson

“Kristoffer “Kris” Kristofferson (born June 22, 1936) is an American country music singer, songwriter, musician, and film actor. Born in Brownsville, Texas, he attended Pomona College, where he achieved a degree in literature and specialised in the poetry of Blake. Whilst at college, he published a series of short stories in Atlantic Monthly, and went on to win a Rhodes scholarship to Oxford.
It was in 1958, during his stay in England, that Kristofferson first performed his own music, under the pseudonym ‘Kris Carson’. After graduating from Oxford, Kristofferson served in the US army for five years and, upon being discharged, turned down a teaching post in order to pursue his music career in Nashville.

Loving Arms Lyrics

Song by Kris Kristofferson and Rita Coolidge

If you could see me now
The one who said that he’d rather roam
The one who said he’d rather be alone
If you could only see me now

If I could hold you now
Just for a moment, if I could make you mine
Just for a while, turn back the hands of time
If I could only hold you now

I’ve been too long in the wind, too long in the rain
Takin’ any comfort that I can
Lookin’ back and longin’ for the freedom of my chains
Lyin’ in your lovin’ arms again

If you could hear me now (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Singin’ somewhere through a lonely night (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Dreamin’ of the arms that held me tight (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
If you could only hear me now

I’ve been too long in the wind, too long in the rain
Takin’ any comfort that I can
Lookin’ back and longin’ for the freedom of my chains
Lyin’ in your lovin’ arms again

Hmm-hmm-hmm (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Hmm-hmm-hmm (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Hmm-hmm-hmm (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Hmm-hmm-hmm (hmm-hmm-hmm)
Hmm-hmm-hmm (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Hmm-hmm-hmm (ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
