Love that runs away from me
Dreams that just wont let me be
Blues that keep on botherin me
Chains that just wont set me free
Too far away from you and all your charms
Just out of reach of my two empty arms
Each night in dreams I see your face
Memories time cant erase
I awake and find you gone
Im so blue and all alone
So far away from lips so sweet and warm
Just out of reach of my two empty arms
Spoken:
That ol lonesome feelin all the time
I know youll never be mine
Dreams that hurt me in my sleep
I mean vows that we just couldnt keep
Too far away from you and all your charms
Just out of reach of my two empty arms
