If you see her, say hello, she might be in Tangier
She left here last early spring, is livinÔÇÖ there, I hear
Say for me that IÔÇÖm all right though things get kind of slow
She might think that IÔÇÖve forgotten her, donÔÇÖt tell her it isnÔÇÖt 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, weÔÇÖve never been apart.
If you get close to her, kiss her once for me
I always have respected her for busting out and gettinÔÇÖ free
Oh, whatever makes her happy, I wonÔÇÖt 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 IÔÇÖve never gotten used to it, IÔÇÖve just learned to turn it off
Either IÔÇÖm too sensitive or else IÔÇÖm gettinÔÇÖ soft.
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past
I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
If sheÔÇÖs passinÔÇÖ back this way, IÔÇÖm not that hard to find
Tell her she can look me up if sheÔÇÖs got the time.
