Subject: Lyrics and info on oldie
HI...I'm new to this site and just surfed on looking for info on an old song...hope someone can please help. I am looking for any info on a song from the 1920s or 1930s...which I think is called "Take me in your arms"..From what I've been able to find out so far...it seems this could have been done by Ruth Etting in 1932 and perhaps written by a Fritz Rotter and Arthur Freed...with English lyrics by Mitchell Parish...(At least that's the info someone sent mte). The lyrics go like this: "Take me in your arms..before you take your love from me...take me in your arms..and then goodbye. Blind me with your kiss...(Then another part mentions "sadness" into "gladness"" Someone mentioned this could have been a German song...since "English lyrics" are stated..and Rotter was German, evidently...IF..this is the song I'm looking for...I've searched all over and can't get information..history..as to when it was performed, etd. I would appreciate any info, as to when this song is from...where I can get the lyrics..and who exacty wrote it..and sang it..and where I could get a recording or miidi of it online..Wow! What an order I gave you! Thanks..and please email me...Sincerely, Jack
