Just Out of Reach
Yearning Embrace: Unraveling the Poignant Tale in 'Just Out of Reach'
Lyrics
Just out of reach
Feeling like something desired is unattainable
Of my two open arms
My arms are extended, but I can't reach what I long for
Love that runs away from me
Love that consistently escapes or eludes me
Dreams that just won't let me be
Unfulfilled aspirations that persistently disturb my peace
Blues that keep on botherin' me
Feelings of sadness or melancholy that persistently trouble me
Chains that just won't set me free
Restrictions or burdens that I can't overcome
Too far away from you
Far away from the person I desire, missing their attractive qualities
And all your charms
Missing the allure or appeal of the person I desire
Just out of reach
Continuously unable to embrace or attain what I long for
Of my two empty arms
My arms are empty, unable to reach what I desire
Each night in dreams I see your face
Every night in my dreams, I visualize your presence
Memories time can not erase
Memories of you that time cannot erase
Then I awake an' find you gone
Waking up to the reality that you're not there
I'm so blue and all alone
Feeling sorrowful and completely alone
So far away from you
Separated by distance from the person I desire
And all your charms
Missing the attractive qualities of the person I desire
Just out of reach
Continually unable to reach or embrace what I long for
Of my two open arms
My arms remain empty, unable to reach what I desire
That lonesome feelin' all the time
Consistent feelings of loneliness
Knowin' you cannot be mine
Awareness that being with you is an impossibility
Dreams that hurt me in my sleep
Dreams causing emotional pain and disturbance during sleep
Vows that we could never keep
Promises or commitments that could never be fulfilled
So far away from you
Separated by distance from the person I desire
And all your charms
Missing the attractive qualities of the person I desire
Just out of reach
Continuously unable to reach or embrace what I long for
Of my two open arms
My arms remain open but unable to reach what I desire
Just out of reach
Feeling of longing or desire that remains unfulfilled
Of my two open arms
My arms remain extended, unable to reach what I desire
