Lyrics
MY ARMS MAY BE EMPTY
(verse) Soft brown eyes follow me from your picture on the wall
Sometimes, I hear your laughter floating on a fickle wind
Add the sweetest kisses any man (girl) has ever known
These visions will haunt me until we meet again
(chorus) MY ARMS MAY BE EMPTY
But, my heart's still full of you
My fantacies and memories
Remind me that it's true
MY ARMS MAY BE EMPTY
But, my heart's still full of you
(verse) I watch the calendar and check off days as they pass
While I'm waiting for your call to hurry and join you there
Will you be waiting Dear, with a loving, warm embrace?
Only your arms can end my cold and lonely despair
(repeat chorus)
(bridge) They say "absense makes the heart grow fonder"
Is it any wonder, I've grown so fond of you?
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
MY ARMS MAY BE EMPTY
But, my heart's still full of you
Just say the word - please say the word
And I'll join you there
