Covert, messages were written on scraps of paper Hanging on the wall Searching, searching for my woman Put an ad to retrieve a call I'd left home, and it's all I could remember It's the worst that I did, but I never did go back Sometimes, I wonder if I'll find her I'd do anything to get her back I'll tell you something, They don't make them like they used to, Oh... someone tell me where she is. I did it like I'll do it again Like I did my friend Don't that tell you something? Well it told me. I'm walking, walked on every street But I haven't found a girl, nowhere close to her, She was, perfect, prim and proper, Had her ways to make me fall in love Memories, Oh I can still remember, how she left my life, She left me with her taste She is the one that got away She will be so hard to replace. I'm still alone Waiting by the phone It's so hard to be strong I've made up my mind, to go on and on... Oh...
