Love that runs away from me
Dreams that just won't let me be
Blues that keep on botherin' 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 empty arms
Each night in dreams I see your face
Memories time cannot erase

Then I awake and find you gone
Then I'm so blue and all alone
So far away from you
So sweet and warm
Just out of reach of my two empty arms

That lonesome feelin' all the time
Knowing you could not be mine
Dreams that hurt me in my sleep
Vows that we could never keep

So far away from you and all your charms
Just out of reach of my two empty arms
Just out of reach of my two empty arms
