Now blue ain't the world for the way that I feel

And the storm's a brewing in this heart of mine

This ain't no crazy dream I know that it's real

You're someone else's love now you're not mine

Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new

For my yearning heart keeps saying you're not mine

My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed

And that's why I'm lonely all the time

[ steel - fiddle ]

So please take the treasured dreams I have for you and me

And take all the love I've thought was mine

Someday my crazy arms may hold somebody new

But now I'm so lonely all the time

Crazy arms that reach...
