|
I got an invitation from a girl I used to know back home |
|
It was an invitation asking me to telephone |
|
She said, it's getting lonely here |
|
And I've been gone for close a year |
|
I took the first flight out to meet the girl I used to know back home |
|
She met me off the flight, a million dollars in her long red gown |
|
With a man in a black hat just to drive us back to town |
|
Now the faces all look the same |
|
And all the places have the same old names |
|
But in a year you've changed just like the girl I used to know back home |
|
Yes, in a year you've changed just like the girl I used to know back home |
|
Maybe it's true that I go on and on and on |
|
Maybe it's true that I'm the lonely one alone |
|
What can I say to you, what can I say to you? |
|
Yes, in a year you've changed just like the girl I used to know back home |
|
It took another year before I started getting itchy toes |
|
And then I had to leave, but that's the way the story goes |
|
Well I reckon if she'd made me stay |
|
I'd never live to see another day |
|
I took the first flight out and left the girl I used to know back home |
|
Maybe it's true that I go on and on and on |
|
Maybe it's true that I'm the lonely one alone |
|
What can I say to you, what can I say to you? |
|
I took the first flight out and left the girl I used to know back home |
|
Back home, I left the girl back home |
|
I left the girl back home |
|
I left the girl back home |
