There goes the girl I used to know there goes the girl that I love so

There goes the arms that used to hold me tight

There goes the reason that I sigh there goes the reason that I cry

There goes the lips I used to kiss goodnight there goes my love



Well you're the first love of my life and you might be my last

I don't want to be just another memory in your past

There goes the girl...

[ steel ]

I've got a feelin' for you yet that's with my night and day

Just because we're far apart don't make it go away

There goes the girl...
