I¡¯m going back to see if I can find my lonesome girl
|
I¡¯ve been told she still lives in that old part of town.
|
Oh, how I long to be with her and never leave again.
|
|
Light green heels unfolding, then turning into blue,
|
Meddle horses riding fast in the Catallian sun,
|
But I can only think of that lonesome girl of mine.
|
|
Italian singers in the streets, playing their Spanish guitars.
|
Young man crying heavily in the arms of Mona Lisa,
|
But I can only think of that lonesome girl of mine.
|
|
The Christian church standing so tall, its shadows now growing dull
|
A fortune telling lady shouting the Roman Empire is dying,
|
And I can only think of that lonesome girl of mine.
|
|
The gates of Rome are opened now, restless and complaining
|
Diamonds shining in the sun, beggars collecting tin cans.
|
But I can only think of that lonesome girl of mine.
|
|
Mother wolf is howling now, the orphan baby¡¯s fighting,
|
The allophones of Anabelle still stuck in the mountains.
|
But I can only think of that lonesome girl of mine.
|
|
Now I¡¯m going back to see if I can find my true love
|
Oh, I¡¯ve been told she still lives in that old part of town.
|
Oh, how I long to be with her and never leave again.
|
For I can only think of that lonesome girl of mine.
