We grew up together,   we've been here forever.   Barefoot in the summer,   cold in stormy weather.   She taught me all there is,   like magic and love,   lots of forgotten words      But now, she doesn't live here anymore.   She's off and she's gone,   she doesn't live here anymore.   I'm sorry that's all there is to it,   I'm sorry that's all      She dressed just like a painter,   a female street Picasso   and I, I will remember   the heaven in her laughter.   And the scent of her sweet perfume   when we made love   under an August moon      But now, she doesn't live here anymore.   She's off and she's gone,   she doesn't live here anymore.   She's gone since long, so long,   she doesn't live here anymore.   She took off and left home,   she doesn't live here anymore.   I'm sorry that's all there is to it,   I'm sorry that's all. That's all.
