mm-mm-mm
|
mm-mm-mm
|
|
Empty arms that long for you
|
And they wait, they wait just for you
|
And these arms will stay this way
|
Till you return to them some day
|
|
Each lonely night I'll go to bed
|
mm-My heart the pillow where you used to lay your head
|
|
Empty arms, but not for long
|
'cause my man, he is comin' home
|
And when he, when he walks through that door
|
These empty arms I'll have no more
|
|
Yeah, these empty arms I'll have no more
|
