Seems like the other day

My baby went away

He went away 'cross the sea

It's been two years or so

Since I saw my baby go

And then this letter came for me

It said that we were through

He found somebody new (who?)

Let me think, let me think

What can I do?

Oh, no

Oh, no

Oh, no, no, no, no, no

walking in the sand

walking hand-in-hand

smile was so inviting

the night was so exciting

then he touched my cheek

with his fingertips

Softly, softly, softly we'd meet with our lips

Whatever happened to

The boy that I once knew?

The boy who said he'd be true

Oh, what will happen to

The light I gave to you

What will I do with it now?

Instrumental Break

Oh, no

Oh, no

Oh, no, no, no, no, no
