Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel
There's a storm brewin' 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
But my yerning heart keeps sayin' 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
(instrumental)
so please take these treasured dreams I had for you and me
And take all the love I thought was mine
someday my crazy arms may hold somebody new
And that's why I'm lonely all the time
Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new
But my yerning heart keeps sayin' 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
