If you see her, say hello, she might be in Tangier
It's a city 'cross the water, not too far from here
Say for me I'm all right, things are kind of slow
She might think I've forgotten her, don't tell her it isn't so

We had a falling-out, like lovers sometime do
To think of how she left that night, it hurts me through and through
And though our separation, ahh, you know, it pierced me to the bone
I gotta find someone else to take her place, you know, I don't like to be alone

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, never gotten used to it, I've just learned to turn it off
Ohh, her eyes were blue, her hair was too, her voice was so sweet and soft.

Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past
I know every scene by heart, they all, they all went by so fast
If she's passin' back this way, and I sure hope she don't
Tell her she can look me up, I'll either be here or I won't
