The Booths - Empty Arms

When night finally turns to day,

once again I awake to find you gone

Though my dreams take me through the night,

The reality of day finds me alone

Once we walked together,

young lovers vowing always to be true

I can’t blame you for leaving me,

but now I’m left with arms that ache for you

Empty Arms, that still long for you,

will never hold anyone new,

I will keep you safe and warm,

come back and fill these empty arms

Somedays are worse than others now,

but there’s not a day that I don’t hurt for you,

I’m trying to go forward now,

knowing it’s the only right thing to do

One day I hope to see you,

coming back to find what we once knew

but until that time I know,

I’ll keep these empty arms for you

repeat chorus
