Ever since the day she left. She never left my mind. I see the tears on her sweet face. From when we said goodbye. But some things in this life. Are just not meant to be.

Long tall Lassie from Tallahassee. Teachin' her high school English classes. But when the bell rings after school. Puts on her jeans and her high heel boots.
Another day slips away. And once again I've hardly even seen your face. To get any time together we have to beg steal and borrow. So we put off until tomorrow the love we need to share today.
