The baby cries, I could almost die from lonesome
The late show's gone and the coffee's on think I'll read some
Somewhere out there my love you share
And your thoughts are far from home.

But when the lights on Broadway go off
And every honky tonk is closed up
My arms stay open late so you'll come home
What you do is wrong but my love stays strong for you
I don't think I'll change a thing at all I might lose you.

Though it's almost dawn and you're still not home
I'll wait here patiently
The lights to my love never go off
and the door to my heart don't close up
My arms stay open late so you'll come home.
My arms stay open late so you'll come home...
