{Words & Music: Jim Webb} Boy, I can understand how it might be Kind of hard to love a girl like me I don't blame you much for want-it to be free I just wanted you to know I've loved you better than your own kin did From the very start It's my own fault what happens to my heart See I've always known you'd go [CHORUS:] So you just do what you gotta do My wild sweet love Tho' it may mean that I'll never kiss those sweet lips again Pay that no mind, just chase that dappled dream of yours And come on back and see me when you can. Now I know they make you sad Oh it make me feel so bad Say you don't treat me like you should They got ways to make you feel no good I guess they got no way to know Had my eyes wide open from the start And boy, the part you've shown to me Is the part of you they'll never see It's the part you've shown to me [CHORUS 2x] Just chase that dappled dream of yours And come on back and see me when you can Just chase that dappled dream of yours And come on back and see me when you can
