Love that runs away from me dreams that just won't let me be
Blues that keep on bothering me chains that just won't set me free
Too far away from you and all your charms just out of reach of my two open arms
Each night in dreams I see your face mem'ries time cannot erase
Then I awake and find you gone I'm so blue and all alone
So far away from lips so sweet and warm just out of reach of my two empty arms
[ guitar - steel ]
If you need me I'll be near I'll be faithful never fear
I'll think of you both night and day so close and yet so far away
I pray the Lord to keep you from all harm just out of reach of my two open arms
