Solomon Burke - Just Out Of Reach Lyrics






Just out of reach of my two empty arms

A love that runs away from me
Dreams that just won't let me be
Blues that keeps on bothering me
Chains that just won't set me free

Too far away from you and all your charm
Just out of reach of my two empty arms

Each night in dreams, I see your face
Memories, time cannot erase
Then I awake and find you're gone
Then I'm so blue and all alone

So far away from you, so sweet and warm
Just out of reach of my two empty arms, empty arms

That lonesome feeling all the time
Knowing you could not be mine
Dreams that hurt me in my sleep
Vows that we could never, never keep

So far away from you and all your charm
Just out of reach of my two empty arms, empty arms

    My last year of High School. What a song...what memories....what a life. And here I am, closing in on 80 years of age. And they said I'd never make 21. Surprised 'em all....not the least among them...myself.

    I've always been fond of this great melody and have favored the recordings of this by Jim Reeves and Brenda Lee. This rendition is particularly beautiful. His softness is remarkable - filled with emotion. The background accompaniment both vocal and instrumental all add to make this an amazingly beautiful recording.
