There was a girl back in my town
But I shouldn't bring up what I can't put down
She was above reproach in every way
One day I left the town I'm from
As hard as I tried, she would not come along
She left me alone in every way
People are laughing and having such fun
I wish it was happening to me
But this is the moonlight
The very same moonlight
So how happy can I be?
Now I'm alone, and I'm at large
What kind of fool puts me in charge?
God, it's a lonely way I'm living these days
There was a girl back in my town that I couldn't get over
She won't come around, you know
She left me alone in every way
