Leaving this town like a one man parade
Headed straight for the Pacific blue
It seems all that I love has been left far behind
All the hundreds of days without you

But it won't be long before
You grow lonely, lonely
Long before you grow lonely again
I'll be singin' this song
To remind me about you
Singin' this song so I never forget

Page after page I keep writing these words
Tryin' to sum up my life to a tune
There's no rhyme for my reason and no such demand
For my mind was made up rather soon

But it won't be long before
I grow lonely, lonely
Long before I grow lonely again
I'll be singin' this song
To remind me about you
Singin' this song so I never forget
