Just out of Reach

I want a love that's mine all mine, all the time
 You keep it just out of reach
 I want a love that's mine all mine
 You keep it just out of reach
 She arrives all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed
 Oh but soon, soon the tears will swell
 Makin' it here seems such a cinch
 But soon she'll smell the stench
 Of the gutter-dwellers, them pretty fellows
 I want a love that's mine all mine, all the time
 You keep it just out of reach
 I want a love that's mine all mine
 I sit alone and wonder why
 Sweet love just pass me by
 Is there someone out there who wants to try
 I'll protect you, girl I never will neglect you
 Just slip on this ring and
 I will make your heart sing, my love
 I want a love that's mine all mine, all the time
 You keep it just out of reach
 I want a love that's mine all mine
 You keep it just out of reach
 I want a love that's mine all mine, all the time
 You keep it just out of reach
 I want a love that's mine all mine
 I want a love that's mine all mine
 But you keep it out of reach
 I want a love that's mine all mine
 But you keep it out of reach
