If you see her say hello she might be in Tangier
She left here last early spring is living 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 doing what she did and getting free
Oh whatever makes her happy I won`t stay 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 getting soft.
Sundown yellow moon I replay the past
I know every scene by heart they all went by so fast
If she`s passing back this way I`m not that hard to find
Tell her she can look me up if she`s got the time.
