Katie's been gone since the spring time;
|
She wrote one time'n sent her love.
|
Katie's been gone for such a long time now.
|
I wonder what kind of love she's thinkin' of.
|
|
Dear Katie,
|
If you can hear me,
|
I can't wait to have ya near me.
|
|
Oh, Katie, since ya caught that bus,
|
Well, I just don't know how things are with us.
|
I'm still here and you're out there.
|
|
Katie laughed when I said I was lonely.
|
She said, There's no need t'feel that way.
|
Katie said that I was her only one,
|
But then I wonder why she didn't wanna stay.
|
|
Dear Katie, if I'm the only one,
|
How much longer will you be gone?
|
Oh, Katie, won't ya tell me straight:
|
How much longer do I have to wait?
|
|
I'll believe you,
|
But please come through.
|
I know it's wrong to be apart this long;
|
You should be here, near me.
|
|
Katie's been gone and now her face is slowly fading from my mind.
|
She's gone to find some newer places,
|
Left the old life far behind.
|
Dear Katie, dont ya miss your home?
|
I dont see why you had to roam.
|
|
Dear Katie, since you've been away
|
I lose a little something every day
|
I need you here, but you're still out there.
|
Dear Katie, please drop me a line,
|
just write, Love, to tell me you're fine.
|
|
Oh, Katie, if you can hear me,
|
I just cant wait to have you near me.
|
I can only think
|
Where are you,
|
What ya do, may be there's someone new.
|
