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
