She's Gone Away

she's a brown haired girl

with a pretty, pretty smile

and if you asked me

i wish she'd stay for a while

but no, no no no

she's gone away

i asked her not to leave

but she said she had to go

told me where she's going

but i don't think she knows

woah, woah woah woah

she's gone away



goodbye, goodbye my friend

goodbye, till we meet again



i called her on the phone

to see if things were working out

but she didn't answer then

and she won't answer now

oh, oh oh oh

she's gone away



as she walked out the door

i asked her if she cared

when i'm old and sixty four

will she still be there?



i tried for several years

just to get a glimpse of her

people knew her name

but they couldn't tell me more

no, no no no

she's gone away



goodbye, goodbye my friend

goodbye, goodbye my friend

goodbye, goodbye my friend

goodbye, till we meet again
