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
