Now, blue ain't the word for the way that I feel

There's a storm brewin' in this heart of mine

You're someone else's love now, you're not mine

Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new

But my burnin' heart keeps sayin' you're not mine

But now I'm so lonely all the time

Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new
