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.
