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
