If you see her, say hello, she might be in Tangier
She left here last early spring, is livin' there, I
hear
Say for me that I'm all right though things get kind
of slow
She might think that I've forgotten her, don't tell
her it isn't so.
We had a falling-out, like lovers often will
And to think of how she left that night, it still
brings me a chill
And though our separation, it pierced me to the
heart
She still lives inside of me, we've never been
apart.
If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
I always have respected her for busting out and
gettin' free
Oh, whatever makes her happy, I won't stand in the
way
Though the bitter taste still lingers on from the
night I tried to make her stay.
I see a lot of people as I make the rounds
And I hear her name here and there as I go from town
to town
And I've never gotten used to it, I've just learned
to turn it off
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past
I know every scene by heart, they all went by so
fast
If she's passin' back this way, I'm not that hard to
find
Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time. |
