Faron Young - Just Out of Reach Lyrics

(V.F. Stewart)

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.

--- Instrumental ---

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...
