about

My first girlfriend was by far the nicest and best I ever knew. Unfortunately her father was in the Air Force and was transferred to Tel Aviv. That was the end of that. Still miss her.

lyrics

The Girl I Once Knew


Verse 1:
Sitting looking out the window.
Watch the rain drip from the trees,
Falling, gently landing down below.
Clouds roll on overhead.
They seem to stretch on endlessly.
A ray of sunlight they never shed.
Chorus:
Oh, the girl I once knew.
Oh, the girl I once knew.
Oh, the girl I once knew.
Whatever became of you?
Verse 2:
Days seem to slip away.
They move on with the breeze.
Oh why, don’t they ever stay?
I think of days the sun did shine
On the flowers and the trees.
We never had to worry about the time.
Chorus:
All the while thinking of you,
Oh, the girl I once knew.
All the while thinking of you,
Oh, the girl I once knew.
Whatever became of you?
Bridge:
Still see your face, can hear your voice in my dreams.
Please let me dream on endlessly.
Coda:
All the while thinking of you.
Oh, the girl I once knew.
All the while thinking of you.
Oh, the girl I once knew.
Whatever became of you.
