Written by v.f. stewart (as recorded by jim reeves oct. 12, 1962) 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 can't erase 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 Spoken: That ol' lonesome feelin' all the time I know you'll never be mine Dreams that hurt me in my sleep I mean vows that we just couldn't keep Too far away from you and all your charms Just out of reach of my two empty arms
