Far from this town
Lives one I let down
And if you go there and you see her
Tell her I'm okay
But don't tell me
Anything she'll say
Cause I once had her
And she once had me
And I left her there
By the roaring sea
And I sometimes wonder
If she still thinks of me
But that won't change
Why we can't be
She's so tender
Smells all summer
And at night when it gets colder
Put a scarf around her shoulder
But never tell me anything she'll say
Cause I once had her
And she once had me
And I left her there
By the roaring sea
And I sometimes wonder
If she still thinks of me
But that won't change
Why we can't be
Cause I once had her
And she once had me
And I left her there
By the roaring sea
And I sometimes wonder
If she still thinks of me
But that won't change
Why we can't be
But that won't change
Why we can't be
