Empty arms that long for you
And they wait, dear, just for you
And these arms will stay this way
Til you return to them some day

Each lonely night, I go to bed
I hug the pillow where you
Used to press your head

Empty arms but not for long
Cause my babe is coming home
And when she walks through that door
These empty arms I'll have no more

These empty arms I'll have no more
