if you see her, say hello

If you see her say hello she might be in TangierShe left here last early spring is living there I hearSay for me that I'm all right though things get kind of slowShe might think that I've forgotten her don't tell her it isn't so.We had a falling-out like lovers often willAnd to think of how she left that night it still brings me a chillAnd though our separation it pierced me to the heartShe still lives inside of me we've never been apart.If you get close to her kiss her once for meI always have respected her for doing what she did and getting freeOh whatever makes her happy I won't stay in the wayThough the bitter taste still lingers on from the night I tried to make her stayI see a lot of people as I make the roundsAnd I hear her name here and there as I go from town to townAnd I've never gotten used to it I've just learned to turn it offEither I'm too sensitive or else I'm getting soft.Sundown yellow moon I replay the pastI know every scene by heart they all went by so fastIf she's passing back this way I'm not that hard to findTell her she can look me up if she's got the time.
