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 open arms.

Each night in dreams I see your face,

Memories 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 open arms.

Dreams that hurt me in my sleep,

Vows that we could never keep,

Too far away from lips so sweet and warm 

Just out of reach of my two open arms.
